The growing incidences and prevalence of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), cancer, Alzheimer's disease, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPDs), and diabetes are fueling the demand for services and solutions. Various factors, such as the adoption of sedentary lifestyles, physiological changes in the body, and unhealthy diets, play a major role in increasing the incidence of chronic diseases. The use of telehealth helps in the effective management of chronic diseases and helps patients consult medical professionals in time by using mobile devices, live videos, and other smart digital tools. It enables cost-effective patient management by minimizing hospitalizations and frequent visits to hospitals and clinics.
The number of cancer cases is increasing across the globe. For instance, according to the CDC, in the US, 23.31 million adults aged 18 years and above were diagnosed with cancer in 2018. The increasing number of people with cancer is increasing the cost burden on patients and governments. For instance, in 2021, the CDC stated that the cost of cancer care is expected to increase by USD 174 billion by 2022 in the US. As the incidence of these chronic diseases is increasing, the need for providing cost-effective care to patients in remote locations is also growing. This will spur the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The market is rapidly growing due to technological advances in healthcare. Healthcare professionals are using tools such as mobile health (mHealth), AI, machine learning, and IoT to provide high-quality, remote patient care. mHealth, which allows healthcare providers to monitor patients and communicate with them easily, is a popular approach.
Research institutes are developing advanced mHealth technology, such as a sensor-embedded toilet seat for monitoring congestive heart failure patients. AI and other analytical tools are being integrated into solutions to enhance medical decision-making and make healthcare systems more efficient. Vendors are extending their analytical tool capabilities, such as Koninklijke Philips NV's Sentry Score, which predicts patient health risks using vital sign data for earlier intervention.
Privacy and data security concerns are major challenges impeding market growth. They have become an effective alternative to traditional healthcare delivery methods. Technological advancements have widened the scope for better healthcare services for patients. The collection and aggregation of data such as patient health details, clinical information, and others are integral and an important part of providing patient care with this technology. Routine data is shared with medical professionals from patients' medical devices or mobile applications for routine monitoring of his/her health.
Moreover, unauthorized access to medical data, data theft, data breaches, hacking by unauthorized people or data hackers, and the loss of data during the transmission of patient data on cloud-based networks are major threats that are expected to hamper the uptake of these services to a certain extent. Therefore, this can restrict the market's growth during the forecast period.

The services segment was the largest and was valued at USD 12.70 billion in 2018. The increasing uptake of these services by healthcare providers has increased the demand for a comprehensive range of clinical and non-clinical services in the healthcare industry. Prominent vendors offer various services. For instance, Iris Telehealth offers telepsychiatry services that help in providing quality psychiatric care in hospital settings. Improving patient outcomes, improving the morale of physicians, significant cost savings, and the capability of improved CPT code capture are the major factors contributing to the easy uptake of this service by hospitals and clinics. Through telepsychiatry services, healthcare professionals from hospitals can provide consultation on time, which helps in the timely assessment, treatment, and disposition of patients. Furthermore, a dearth of mental health professionals and difficulties in providing access to mental healthcare in rural areas have also increased the demand for telepsychiatry services. Thus, owing to such factors the segment is expected to grow during the forecast period.
