Analyst Opinion

With an annual revenue of more than US$4tn, the hospitals Market is one of the biggest and most essential markets in the healthcare industry. The increase in diseases and an aging population are the main drivers of the hospitals market. Over the last 50 years the worldwide obesity has nearly tripled according to the World Health Organization. More than 13% of adults are being obese and around 39% of adults are being overweight. Additionally, poor lifestyle such as lack of exercise, unhealthy diet habits, and smoking lead to further health problems. As a result, chronic diseases such as asthma, diabetes, and cancer are increasing in prevalence. Furthermore, due to the increasing average life expectancy there is a huge demand for special treatments and medical care of the aging population. Accordingly, the total health expenditure is expected to increase rapidly as the demand and patient numbers are growing.

A restrictive factor for the hospital markets is the limited access to healthcare facilities in many emerging countries. Poor quality of healthcare facilities and the lack of professional healthcare staff and hospitals are playing a negative role in the development of the hospitals market in the developing countries.

In the forecast period, the hospitals market exhibits steady growth at a CAGR of around 4%. In the future, rising demand for technology and digitalization such as electronic health records, surgery robotics and AI-based diagnostics are going to further influence the Hospitals Market.
