Key Highlights
- The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on healthcare operational analytics, transforming the way healthcare organizations utilize data and analytics to manage their operations. One of the most immediate effects was the heightened demand for real-time data to track the spread of the virus, predict resource needs, and allocate resources efficiently. For instance, a book released by the Head of Cybersecurity of the UAE Government in May 2023 revealed that artificial intelligence and big data played a crucial role in tracking and predicting the spread of COVID-19, identification of vulnerable populations, and analysis of high-risk areas for efficient containment and mitigation measures. Therefore, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of data-driven decision-making in healthcare operations, highlighting the need for real-time data analytics, supply chain optimization, and the integration of telehealth data. These changes have not only improved crisis response capabilities but have also set the stage for a more data-driven and resilient healthcare system in the post-pandemic era.
- The major factors driving the market growth include increasing demand for value-based care (VBC), rising need to analyze the collected healthcare data, and rising awareness regarding healthcare standards and improving technologies. The demand for value-based care in healthcare is increasing for several reasons, driven by a desire to improve the overall quality and efficiency of healthcare delivery while managing costs. Some of the key factors contributing to the growing demand for value-based care include a focus on patient outcomes, cost containment, chronic disease management, advancement in health technology, and others. For instance, according to the report published by the National Health Authority of India in 2022, the government of India is shifting its focus from volume-based to value-based healthcare under its Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY) program by establishing PM-JAY Quality Certification Program which provides bronze, silver, and gold certification for the enlisted healthcare providers (EHCPs). Also, as per the same source, this 3-tier certification program has been launched to help hospitals improve their quality and patient safety, and the enlisted hospitals qualifying for the certification receive financial incentives linked to different levels of accreditation/certifications. This instills the importance and necessity of VBC, thereby increasing their adoption by more healthcare providers.
- In addition, the surging support from government bodies is also projected to drive market growth during the forecast period. For instance, in January 2023, the National Health Authority (NHA) of India launched the Digital Health Incentive Scheme (DHIS) to boost digital health transactions in India under the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM). Under the DHIS, the government has allocated INR 4 crore (USD 500,000) for clinics, diagnostic centers, hospitals, and laboratories based on the number of digital health records created and linked to the Ayushman Bharat Health Account. Such initiatives are expected to boost the adoption of healthcare analytics solutions as they can help streamline and enhance the healthcare system of countries.
- Moreover, with the rising demand for value-based care and healthcare data analysis, as well as the generation of huge amounts of healthcare data with digitalization, the companies in the studied market are continuously engaged in research and development activities to enhance the capabilities of their offerings and launching new products/solutions in the market which is further expected to boost the market's growth. For instance, in June 2023, Syntax Health launched a platform that removes friction in the contracting process using analytics, infrastructure, and a collaborative Virtual Workspace. As per the company, its new two-sided software-as-a-service solution allows payers and providers (as well as actuaries, network managers, and analysts) to collaborate in creating a value-based contract.
- Therefore, due to the increasing demand for value-based care, the rising need to analyze the collected healthcare data, and rising awareness regarding healthcare standards and improving technologies, the market studied is expected to witness significant growth. However, concerns regarding data privacy and security and the lack of trained IT professionals in healthcare may hinder the market's growth.


Healthcare Operational Analytics Market Trends

Software Component is Expected to Witness Significant Growth Over a Forecast Period.


- Healthcare operational analytics software helps in processing and analyzing the massive amounts of data that a healthcare organization regularly collects into actionable insights that impact the operation of healthcare facilities, which is an important factor for positive patient outcomes. These operational software help organizations increase efficiency, measure progress, and improve performance. They are also easy to implement, use, and fully integrated with financial and operational data to work and point the organization in the right direction. Other factors that are expected to drive the segment growth include the implementation of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), the development of new healthcare operational software, and the increasing development of new healthcare facilities such as hospitals around the world.
- The rising implementation of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in healthcare operational analytics software is expected to enhance segment growth, as it would lead to the rising adoption of such software. For instance, Qventus is an AI-based software platform that optimizes patient flow across the hospital, including emergency departments and inpatient units. This software provides pre-defined software components that support best practices in operational processes in healthcare organizations. Similarly, VisAnalytics is a healthcare operation analytics software by Visualutions that provides a visual method of discerning very large amounts of data without the need for time-consuming manual data processing and operational analysis. Thus, the development of such AI and ML-based healthcare operational analytics software is expected to enhance the segment growth.
- Furthermore, an article published in August 2022 by Learning Health Systems stated that as the quantity and complexity of health data grows, it is critical for healthcare organizations to devise operational analytic strategies that power data innovation, and for that, the adoption of advanced technologies such as healthcare operational analytics software is necessary. According to the same source, Seattle Children's Healthcare System (Seattle Children's) is an organization that has built an operating model software that integrates analytics into its business and daily operations. Thus, the rising need for healthcare operational analytics software and the increasing implementation in healthcare organizations is expected to boost segment growth.
- Moreover, there is capable software for the implementation of AI that can perform tasks such as thinking, learning, or decision-making required by humans. These features can be used to build prediction models to diagnose diseases in the early stages. Thus, incorporating such technologies is also driving the segment's growth. For instance, in June 2022, Eclinicalworks healthcare IT solutions promulgated that Midwest Orthopaedic Center selected eClinicalWorks for improved patient engagement plus its Cloud EHR and Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) solutions, powered by Robotic Process Automation for improved efficacy and productivity. Thus, such technological advancement in software and tools is driving the growth of this segment.
- Therefore, owing to the aforementioned factors, such as the development of AI and ML-based healthcare operational analytical software and the rising adoption of software coupled with the increasing implementation in healthcare organizations, the studied segment is expected to witness growth over the forecast period.
