Healthcare Smart Card Reader Market Growth & Trends
The global healthcare smart card reader market size is expected to reach USD 2.65 billion by 2030, to expand at a CAGR of 14.7% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is growing due to the increasing use of healthcare smart cards to store and access medical records. Furthermore, smart card readers are used to read data from the smart cards, which contain patient information and also can be used to process medical payments. As healthcare organizations adopt patient-centric technologies, the use of smart card readers is expected to increase. Moreover, the growing demand for secure and efficient healthcare data management is driving the growth of the smart card reader market in healthcare.
The implementation of government regulations to increase healthcare data security is also contributing to the growth of the smart card reader market in healthcare. Various government initiatives are encouraging the use of healthcare smart cards to secure patient data, which is ultimately boosting the adoption. For example, the European Commission enforced the replacement of the paper E-111 form with a card-based analog for accessing cross-border healthcare, thereby boosting the use of smart card technology in healthcare and eventually causing an increase in product demand. Furthermore, the increased demand for cost-effective solutions for healthcare data management is also driving industry growth.
The market is highly competitive, with companies competing for clients based on product quality, features, and pricing. Additionally, companies are focusing on introducing new products by broadening their line of products. For instance, in July 2022, Advanced Card Systems Ltd. launched the ACR39U-W1 SmartDuo Smart Card Reader, which enables users to manage two smart cards simultaneously. Furthermore, companies are investing in partnerships and collaborations to strengthen their market position. For instance, in November 2021, WISeKey, a provider of reliable hardware-based cyber security, expanded its Smart Card Reader Chips Business for Healthcare Applications and reinforced its Agreement with HID Global. Owing to this current deal, WISeKey has the opportunity to expand into new markets within the healthcare sector.
