The commonly utilized healthcare IT tools are electronic health records (EHRs), virtual healthcare platforms, finance management software, administrative software, etc. Integration of IT with healthcare has revolutionized modern medicine. In the Asia-Pacific region, which is currently the epicenter for healthcare investments, the market for healthcare IT is anticipated to gain tremendous growth in the forecast period.

Market Dynamics: Drivers

Rising investments in the healthcare sector

Asia-Pacific has been growing as a major hub for the healthcare industry, many market leaders which were earlier focussed in the Western countries have started investing in the region, to advance the region’s healthcare sector. As a result, automation has gained huge importance in recent times.

For instance, in February 2023, SwipeRx, a Southeast Asia’s technology platform for pharmacies, announced that it had received $10 million in fresh funds from Sanofi’s Global Health Unit and Cercano Management. Earlier in May 2022, the company has received $27 million in funding. SwipeRx plans to utilize this funding for digital B2B commerce in the pharmacy industry.

Moreover, the implementation of AI in the healthcare industry is rising due to the increased budget allocation by firms and government agencies. This is anticipated to bring the advanced technologies in the Asian Healthcare IT market.

For instance, Augnito India Pvt. Ltd. an emerging Gen AI company focusing on the implementation of AI voice solutions has reported a year-on-year growth of 300% in its revenue in 2023. This is due to the rising adoption of AI voice solutions in Asian countries, especially India. The company owns a Gen AI solution called “Ambient technology app” which uses its proprietary multi-lingual Medical Speech Recognition and GenAI technology, helping healthcare providers to interact with patients without the burden of manual data capture and input.

In February 2024, China Medical University Hospital (CMUH) in Taiwan announced the implementation of Google Cloud's generative AI technology “MedLM” a medically-tuned large language model. CMUH has developed a comprehensive ""AI-assisted Physician"" system that aims to assist healthcare professionals in disease diagnosis, treatment planning, patient education, medical research, etc. CMUH is one of the first university hospitals in Asia to test MedLM. The collaboration between CMUH and Google Cloud will introduce assistive tools designed to support medical professionals in precision cancer treatment.

Restraints

Factors such as data privacy and security concerns may restrain the market for healthcare IT in the region. Many citizens in Asian countries like China, South Korea, and Japan may refrain from disclosing their health information publicly. This may restrain the technologies that require patient medical information. Moreover, healthcare professionals may refrain from adopting to new technologies due to unfamiliarity, which may restrain the adoption of advanced technologies in the region.
