U.S. Healthcare Laboratory Informatics Market Share, By End Use, 2013-2024 (USD Million)
Today, laboratory computing in healthcare with cloud-based solutions have become the de facto prerequisites for efficient clinical service and lab management. Cloud-based big data services such as CaaS, MaaS, PaaS, SaaS, XaaS and LaaS are being put to use in several healthcare organizations to provide easy and quick access to necessary information. The implementation of lab informatics has specifically helped the healthcare industry to cut down cost on infrastructure and IT resources and in turn enable the organizations to be agile and more responsive to business needs. Cloud-based healthcare laboratory informatics market is gaining immense business opportunities as it has effectively provided services via internet combating the locational barriers. Providing alerts to patients about health risks, disease monitoring, and geospatial mapping are few of the service areas presented by cloud computing technology. Apart from cloud-based, on premise solutions have also accounted for a significant healthcare laboratory informatics industry share as this deployment mode provides the organization with full control over data storage.
The global healthcare laboratory informatics industry has indeed witnessed an increasing demand for services and software components. Rising popularity of software as a services (SaaS) has in a way fueled the growth of healthcare laboratory informatics. Services contributed to more than 50% of healthcare laboratory informatics industry share in 2016 and is likely to continue growth trends in the similar fashion over the coming years. Software healthcare laboratory informatics market is further projected to witness exceptional growth driven by the robust technological advancements in healthcare space.
On the product front, laboratory information management systems (LIMS) is witnessing a phenomenal demand from biobanks and biotech companies. In 2016, LIMS healthcare laboratory informatics market contributed to the largest chunk of revenue terrain. Factors such as easy data tracking and less errors have led the LIMS healthcare laboratory informatics industry to witness lucrative growth over its other counterparts including Electronic lab notebooks (ELN), scientific data management systems (SDMS), Chromatography Data System, Corrective Action & Prevention Action (CAPA). As per the statistics, SDMS market is poised to witness lucrative gains at a CAGR of 9% over 2017-2024, owing to its convenient approach of collecting and organizing data for future studies. This healthcare laboratory informatics product works independently of the instrument, model, and manufacturer.
