The adoption of EHRs would continue to rise over the next few years as healthcare institutions

focus on providing on-time, quality healthcare to patients. The US and other developed

economies in Western Europe would mainly drive the trend, whereas uptake in developing

countries is expected to be considerably slower. Despite the current growth trend, long-term

outlook for the industry depends on the ability of healthcare service providers to achieve

sustainable returns on their investments in EHR systems.

Adoption of EHR in the EMEA region was inhibited due to slow economic recovery. However, the market for EHR is expected to expand from ~$6.5 billion in 2014 to over $7 billion in 2015. Government funding is expected to drive the growth of the EHR market in Europe. In the UK, Europe’s largest EHR market, adoption will get a boost thanks to the National Health Service’s (NHS) plans on going paperless by 2018. The growth of the EHR market in the Asia-Pacific region will be mainly led by Japan and Australia

By 2015, the global EHR market is expected to reach $22.3 billion. The US would continue to remain the largest market growing annually at ~7.1% to reach $9.3 billion in 2015. The growth would primarily be driven by governments enforcing the use of EHRs in place of paper medical records

Global EHR market was estimated at $19.8 billion in 2013 with Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) being the largest end users followed by community health centres.

EHRs are real-time, patient-centered records that make patient information available to authorized users instantly and in a secured manner
