The electronic system improves the storage system of the information by eliminating paper-based information. It helps the hospital give quick and improved quality treatment, which also fuels the market's growth rate. Furthermore, the growing adoption of technological advancements in healthcare centers and increasing government funding to enhance healthcare information systems are propelling the growth of the health information exchange market. Factors such as increasing demand for PHR and EHR in economically developing nations and increasing the adoption of mobile health applications and cloud-based systems will likely provide lucrative growth opportunities to the global health information exchange market during the forecast period.The increasing focus on population health management is anticipated to result in the growing usage of health information exchange and the market’s growth rate.

HIE plays a vital role in population health management by providing healthcare professionals with the required data of a specific group of people, which further helps them to identify the trends and patterns that are useful to improve the overall health of the respective population. For instance, HIE helps evaluate the incidence of chronic diseases such as diabetes or CVDs within a population and identify the factors contributing to the disease burden.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

However, the necessity of significant infrastructural investments, low return on investment, and data security & privacy concerns are primarily restricting the growth of the health information exchange market. Furthermore, the budget restrictions in developing countries, low adoption of high-end technologies, and interoperability issues inhibit the market’s growth rate.
