mhealth Markets Worldwide 2015-2020: Hospital, Clinical, Prescription drugs & Other personal care
DUBLIN, July 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/swh8tj/mhealth_markets) has announced the addition of the "mhealth Markets Worldwide" report to their offering.
The process of mobile health involves using network service providers, such as AT&T and Verizon and smartphone and tablet manufactures such as Apple and Samsung, which combined offer the mHealth product and service market.
Mobile health (mhealth) systems are emerging in response to increased healthcare needs of an aging population, new wireless technologies, better video and monitoring technologies, decreasing healthcare resources, an emphasis on reducing hospital days, and growing confidence in cost-effectiveness. Increases in spending have been seen in countries with growing economies such as Brazil and China. Some regional markets have experienced a slowing in the economic growth, but growth in healthcare spending is expected to continue due to increases in national coverage and health reform policies in areas like China.
The largest healthcare segments in terms of healthcare expenditures are:
- Hospital care
- Clinical care
- Prescription drugs
- Other personal care
Physicians, medical students, nurses and other healthcare workers often use a variety of information sources each day. The use of mobile devices and applications (mobile device software) has proven itself to be efficient way for professionals to stay connected as the industry grows and changes.
Smartphone applications or apps can be developed for numerous types of processes including education, health management, data management, health information, and other workflow processes. Not only is the medical community using smartphones and their applications for basic work, but they are reporting using smartphones in replacement for some of the work that would have previously been done on a desktop or laptop computer. The growing use of mobile medical devices and applications for these devices has prompted the Food and Drug Administration to provide more oversight in this segment.
