Global Digital Health Market Dynamics
Drivers: Increase in prevalence of chronic disease
Availability of digital health technologies for wireless monitoring and treatment of patients suffering from different chronic diseases, such as asthma, cancer, blood pressure, heart rate, diabetes, respiratory diseases, and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, is one of the major factors that boost the market growth. Globally, chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, are the leading causes of mortality and morbidity. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2021, various types of chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, respiratory diseases, and diabetes, are responsible for approximately 17.9 million, 9.3 million, 4.1 million, and 1.5 million deaths, respectively. As per the same source, 41 million people die each year due to chronic disease, which is equivalent to 71% of all deaths globally. It has been observed that 77% of the deaths from chronic diseases occur in low and middle-income countries.
Moreover, the surge in sedentary lifestyles, such as tobacco use, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, and harmful alcohol use, increase the risk of chronic disease. According to World Health Organization (WHO), in 2021, it was reported that tobacco intake, physical inactivity, and excess sodium/salt intake are responsible for approximately 7.2 million, 1.6 million, and 4.1 million deaths, respectively, each year. Therefore, this rise in prevalence of chronic disease and increase in lifestyle disorder are the major factors, which surge the demand for digital health services.
Restraints: Concerns related to ensuring regulatory compliance
Digital health applications are offered by various key players in the market. However, before launching any applications in healthcare, the key players need to check the compliance of the new solution with a set of pre-described mandatory rules in the region. Moreover, in some cases, the applications should pass a certification procedure, which allows them to handle a particular data such as patient-generated health data. Furthermore, the certification process is also vital as it allows the application to offer certain functions such as connecting to smart wearable or medical devices. Therefore, digital health applications are subjected to intense certification and testing processes, which can lead to delayed approvals. Furthermore, the applications can also face app store rejection, which is a costly affair. Thus, these factors restrict the growth of the digital health market.
Opportunities: Increase in adoption of digital health devices and technologies
Intertwined with concepts of telehealth & telemedicine, health information and technology, and precision medicine, digital health offer features to actively and remotely monitor physiological parameters. For instance, in March 2021, Amazon Care launched a telehealth offering in 80 states in the U.S., allowing individuals and families access to high-quality medical care and advice. As per the data published in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) Catalyst, in 2021, it was reported that the non-profit health plans launched telehealth to increase the accessibility and affordability of patients.

For instance, in February 2021, engineers from the University of California, San Diego have developed a skin patch that can be worn on the neck to track blood pressure and heart rate while monitoring the user’s glucose, lactate, alcohol, and caffeine levels. The device is said to be the first digital device that tracks, cardiovascular signals, and multiple biochemical levels in the body simultaneously. In addition, Verizon launched BlueJHeans Telehealth to enhance the healthcare system. BlueJheans is a video conference application in which the patient uses their pre-visit to complete questionnaires in advance. Thus, growth in the adoption of digital health is expected to provide an opportunity for the digital health market growth.
