Summary

The goal of this study is to provide an understanding of the U.S. market for selected clinical health care IT technologies in the context of dramatic changes in the structure of the U.S. health care sector.

Specific objectives include:

  • Identifying the segments of the clinical health care IT with the greatest growth potential
  • Analyzing key market drivers and constraints
  • Estimating the size of each market segment through 2014
  • Providing other information on relevant laws and regulations, standards, potential funding sources, and other information that will be useful to health care IT suppliers seeking a share of this market 

The report is intended especially for health care IT suppliers, as well as government agencies, health care policy analysts and others seeking to understand the cost and preconditions for the success of health care IT modernization initiatives. Although the report is structured around specific technologies, it is largely non-technical in nature. It is therefore less concerned with theory and jargon than with effectiveness, the amount the market is likely to purchase, and the going price.
 
As such, the report’s main audience is executive management and marketing and financial analysts. It is not written specifically for scientists and technologists, although its findings concern the market for their work, including the availability of government and corporate research funding for different technologies and applications.
 
This report is an analytical business tool whose primary purpose is to describe and analyze the dynamics of the U.S. market for health care technology. It is particularly focused on clinical IT systems that facilitate or provide input into the care process, as opposed to administrative and financial systems. It covers only software applications, as well as dedicated hardware and online services used to run them.
 
The study scope includes these major elements:

  • Executive summary
  • Definitions
  • Clinical health care IT applications
  • Benefits and barriers to implementation
  • Market environment (e.g., legal and regulatory standards, economic conditions, consumer attitudes)
  • Current (i.e., 2007 to 2008) and projected markets for health care IT technologies and products through 2014
    Industry structure

This Report Highlights:

  • Provides in-depth analysis of the developing U.S. market for selective clinical health care IT technologies
  • Forecasts trends and sales in the U.S. market for selective clinical health care IT technologies through 2014
  • Identifies the segments in the clinical health care IT technologies industry with the greatest growth potential
  • Discusses barriers to deployment of clinical health care IT technologies including lack of standards, lack of compatibility with existing records, technology limitations, hardware availability, lack of skilled personnel, storage requirements and lack of funding
  • Provides information on the selling channels, standards and purchasing criteria that will be useful to heath care IT vendors seeking a share of the market.
