The Global Preventive Healthcare Technologies and Services Market size is estimated at USD 325.74 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 590.76 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 12.64% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
In recent times, countries have faced a huge threat of COVID-19. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), coronavirus disease is an infectious disease, and most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness. Screenings are important to avoid future health problems or catch them early when they are easier to treat. But the COVID-19 pandemic has led to a decrease in preventive screenings because some patients have been hesitant to see their health care provider. As per the study 'Estimated impact of COVID-19 on preventive care service delivery: an observational cohort study' published in October 2021, COVID-19 decreased the delivery of preventive care services, which may cause delayed diagnoses, increased mortality, and increased health care costs. Therefore, COVID-19 had a significant impact on the market. However, with the advancements in virtual care, increase in vaccination drives, and reopening of screening centers, the preventive healthcare technologies and services are expected to meet the demand of pre-pandemic stages, indicating a healthy growth during the study period.
The factors propelling the studied market growth are the rising burden of chronic diseases, increasing geriatric population, increasing research and development activities, advancement in technology preventive healthcare, rising product launches, and strategic initiatives adopted by key market players.

For instance, in July 2021, ModernaTX, Inc. initiated a phase 1/2, randomized, stratified, observer-blind, dose-ranging study to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of mRNA-1010 seasonal influenza vaccine in healthy adults 18 years and older. This study is estimated to be completed by September 2022. Thus, positive results from such studies will boost the influenza vaccination process, thereby preventing more individuals from the disease.
Additionally, in June 2021, the National Institutes of Health launched a phase 1 trial assessing the safety and immunogenicity of an investigational nanoparticle influenza vaccine designed to provide long-lasting protection against multiple flu virus strains. The vaccines are reformulated to match the changes in Hemagglutinin (HA) protein found on the surfaces of the influenza virus. Therefore, growing research and development activities proving the efficacies of reformulated vaccines will lead to lucrative growth of the market.
Moreover, the launch of campaigns to create awareness regarding vaccines will also drive the vaccination drives, thus contributing to the significant growth of the market. For instance, in March 2022, the Measles vaccination campaign was launched by World Health Organization in Afghanistan to fight the ongoing outbreak.
