Global Behavioral/Mental Health Software Market Size study & Forecast, by Component (Support Services, Software), by Delivery Model (Subscription Models, Ownership Models), by Functionality (Clinical Functionality, Administrative Functionality, Financial Functionality), by End User (Community Clinics, Hospitals, Private Practices) and Regional Analysis, 2022-2029
Global Behavioral/Mental Health Software Market is valued approximately at USD 2.0 billion in 2021 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 19.7% over the forecast period 2022-2029. Behavioral and mental health software is a form of electronic medical records software that is specially designed to meet the requirements of the behavioral health specialties. It helps in managing clinical, administrative, and operational tasks related to the practices of hospitals and clinics. This software is used for handling case management or outcome management and also supports completing appointments, billing, and bed management, which helps in the smooth functioning . The market growth is primarily driven by the increasing government funding, rapid penetration of behavioral health software, expanding reimbursement coverage and favorable behavioral health reforms.
The demand for mental health services is on a surge due to the increasing incidences of mental health conditions among the population. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), it was estimated that 1 in every 8 people worldwide lives with a mental disorder that includes significant disturbances in thinking, behavior, or emotional regulation. Depression is recorded as the most prevalent mental disorder and one of the leading causes of disability that affected nearly 264 million people globally. There are various initiatives undertaken to aid this ailment and encourage the adoption of EHR in behavioral health organizations. For instance, in 2019 the World Health Organization (WHO) unveils the launch of its Special Initiative for Mental Health (2019-2023): Universal Health Coverage for Mental Health in order to ensure access to cost-effective and quality care for mental health conditions in 12 priority countries to above 100 million people. Hence, these factors are directly associated with the demand for behavioral or mental health software, which, in turn, accelerates market growth across the globe. Furthermore, the rising inclination towards the adoption of subscription models, as well as emerging technologies in behavioral or mental health care and management are presenting various lucrative opportunities for market growth in the foreseen period. However, several concerns are associated with data privacy, the dearth of HCIT professionals and the usage of traditional paper-based systems which are hampering the market growth throughout the forecast period 2022-2029.
The key regions considered for the Global Behavioral/Mental Health Software Market study include Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and the Rest of the World. North America dominates the market with highest revenue, owing to the growing need for behavioral health services among the population, increasing funding by government bodies for healthcare infrastructural development, and rising initiatives to promote HCIT penetration in behavioral healthcare. The Mental Health America report 2020 stated that there were above 45 million (18.57% of the population) American adults suffering from a mental health condition. Also, Major depressive episodes (MDE) among youth increased by 99,000 from the prior year’s data. Therefore, the presence of a high target population is fueling the demand for behavioral or mental health software in the region. Whereas, the Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the fastest rate over the forecast period. Factors such as rising awareness pertaining to the availability of behavioral health services, cohesive behavioral health reforms, as well as growing prevalence of mental health disorders are attributing to the market growth over the forecast years.
