DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Growth Opportunity Assessment of Healthcare IT Market in Spain, Forecast to 2021" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.
UK, Germany, France and Spain collectively spend more than $6 billion on healthcare information technology (healthcare IT) while regional adoption stands at almost 80%.
Healthcare IT markets in these countries are ready to embark upon the next level of digitalization where providers move from data-capturing solutions to those that can derive value from data through improving information sharing, analytics and clinical decision support.
Spain is leading EMR market growth amongst EU countries, with approximately 90% of healthcare providers having an EMR, 85% of which are engaged in full capture of data. However, less than 15% of hospitals in the country share data outside their network. Majority of the data shared are patient records being shared within the hospital network or with the Ministry of Health.
Between December 2016 and March 2017, a survey of IT managers from 198 hospitals across Western European countries was conducted. The research found that in spite of a high level of EMR adoption only a little more than 15% of large hospitals share data beyond their organization. This has been a huge detriment to efficient and productive health data utilization across all countries included in this study.
However, with changing care paradigms, such as focus on patient-centricity, innovation in care delivery models and the demand for workflow efficiency, improving health data continuity will be a key goal for both governments and providers over the next five years. As a result, interoperability, and standards development and adoption will be major priorities across health systems.
Spain has traditionally been an import market for health technology and medical equipment. Leading market participants include Indra, Cerner and DXC Technology while IBM and Orion Health have a comparatively smaller presence than the three market leaders. Our survey results indicate that future market growth will come from system upgrades rather than investment in new systems or vendors. To promote local digital health vendors the government is initiating start-up incubators and innovation hubs.
