Rising Incidence of Chronic Diseases Fuels Non-Emergency Medical Transportation Market Growth in Europe
Apart from worrying about the recurring medical expenses of patients suffering from chronic diseases, family members also need to be proactive in arranging transportation in emergencies, as these patients require regular access to life-saving health services to remain fit. While some might need therapies on daily basis, many visit their physicians for weekly consultations. Moreover, several chronic diseases can result in temporary or permanent immobility. Arranging a separate car may not be possible, especially for families belonging to low-income groups, who do not own any vehicle. In such cases, NEMT proves to be of great help to people. One missed appointment can lead to an emergency admission to the hospital. The availability of NEMT has proven to be a boon for such patients. The easy availability of NEMT offers individuals affected by chronic conditions access to life-sustaining treatments and health care services without delay. NEMT is a reliable way to go to appointments without facing hindrances related to transportation.
Market Overview
The non-emergency medical transportation market growth in Europe is attributed to factors such as the rising prevalence of cancer and other chronic diseases; an increase in geriatric and physically challenged populations; and the rising prevalence of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and kidney diseases. Germany has been at the forefront of the fight against mental illnesses, and it has prioritized the mental well-being of all Germans since the 1990s. The country has established ways to determine and treat mental illness in citizens. The rates of mental illness in Germany are similar to other developed nations, with ~31% of people diagnosed with at least one mental illness. Like most developed nations, depression and anxiety rank the highest among adults, but people begin developing these conditions in their young age. Surveys conducted by DAK, a German health insurance company, revealed that 24% of 800,000 tested children had some sort of psychological anomaly. However, less than 2% of those tested between the ages of 10 and 17 were diagnosed with depression. According to the German Federal Statistical Office, at the end of 2021, ~7.8 million severely disabled people were living in Germany. Therefore, the rise in the prevalence of mental and other disorders in countries such as Germany is bolstering the demand for non-emergency medical transportation services, thereby contributing to the market growth in Europe.
