The COVID-19 outbreak has encouraged innovations in patient monitoring and cloud computing. For instance, in April 2020, GE Healthcare announced an innovative cloud-based remote-monitoring tool intended to assist clinicians to look after ventilated COVID-19 patients. The growing number of smartphone users around the globe expedited the adoption of mHealth across the sector both from providers and consumers. Healthcare apps are rising and they are easy to download on smartphones. These apps can be connected with wearable devices and they support the users in overall health management, which, in turn, has augmented the dependability of patients on mHealth apps. Hence, the COVID-19 pandemic is anticipated to play a substantial role in digital transformation.

Favorable government initiatives are likely to impact the market growth in the coming years. For instance, in 2018, the FDA established the Patient and Caregiver Connection program. The program was aimed to foster engagement with patients, patient advocates, and caregivers all through the evaluation and surveillance of the treatment. Furthermore, the adoption of these solutions in developing countries like India is supported by favorable government initiatives. For instance, in March 2019, Columbia Asia Hospitals situated across Malaysia, India, Indonesia, and Vietnam launched a patient engagement application suite in collaboration with MphRx. This program is aimed to digitally transform healthcare services, enhance patient engagement, and lead to clinical excellence.

Factors such as the growing burden of chronic diseases and a rise in the geriatric population have led to the adoption of patient engagement solutions worldwide. For instance, as per the American Diabetes Association 2020, there were 1.5 million new cases of diabetes in the U.S. annually. In response to the growing number of diabetic patients, companies are focusing on the development of patient-centric engagement solutions.

For instance, in December 2020, Roche released a digital platform to personalize diabetes management in Thailand. In Thailand, there are 4.3 million individuals with diabetes, out of which half are analyzed, and from those analyzed and treated, only a third are attaining their treatment targets. Roche Diabetes Care's digital platform collects and holds all patient-related health data and it facilitates communication between patients and their healthcare team.
