Industry Segmentation in Depth:
The report analyzes the urgent care apps market by type, clinical area, and region.
On the basis of type, the market is segmented into pre-hospital emergency care & triaging apps, in-hospital communication & collaboration apps, and post-hospital apps. In 2017, the post-hospital apps segment accounted for the largest share of the market. The large share of this segment is mainly attributed the rising awareness of mobile apps to manage medications among patients and increasing demand for medication management & rehabilitation apps due to increasing number of stroke, trauma, and cardiac patients who need rehab support during post-hospital care.
Based on clinical area, the market is classified into trauma, stroke, cardiac conditions, and other clinical areas. The trauma segment is expected to account for the largest share of the urgent care apps market in 2018. The increasing number of road accident across the globe is driving the growth of this segment. As the awareness to address trauma is increasing due to continuous efforts by health organizations, such as WHO, the adoption of apps to manage trauma and casualty among paramedics and emergency centers is also growing.
In 2018, North America accounted for the largest share of the market, followed by Europe. The large share of North America is attributed to the implementation of patient data safety regulations in the region, improving quality of care, increasing internet speeds, the need to reduce escalating healthcare costs, and a growing focus on patient-centric healthcare delivery.
