TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Healthcare IT market: McKesson Corp., Dell Inc., CareFusion Corp., and Philips Healthcare.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “One of the main trends witnessed in the Global Healthcare IT market is the consolidation of organizations. Healthcare organizations have limited access to capital. This gives rise to consolidations. In 2012, some small healthcare organizations affiliated themselves with larger ones, or in some cases, partnered with them in order to form new systems. These systems cater to the needs of self-employed physicians as well as employed doctors. Partnering with various organizations or groups has been extremely essential for healthcare providers, as this helps providers to offer end-to-end healthcare management solutions to patients. Many organizations have been noticed to acquire sizable non-profit organizations, to shift toward a consolidated system that is capable of meeting the needs of all entities associated with it.”
According to the report, one of the main factors driving the market is the increased financial benefits for healthcare providers. With a decrease in the medical record management cost and a reduced number of examinations owing to better diagnostics, the revenue for healthcare providers will increase.
Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is the lack of experienced professionals. In addition, doctors and physicians do not have the required knowledge to make appropriate decisions about what IT solutions to purchase. Medical consultants who help the healthcare providers to purchase IT systems are not really qualified to do so, due to lack of training.
The report also includes a discussion of the other vendors operating in this market. The other vendors in the market are Allscripts Healthcare Solution Inc., Cerner Corp., Computer Sciences Corp., CTS Corp., Epic Systems Corp., NTT Data Inc., Pulse System Inc., Siemens AG, and United Health Group Inc.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
