Market dynamics
1 factors across 1 forceIncreasing use of Telehealth is Supporting the Market Growth
During the COVID-19 pandemic, consumers and healthcare providers increased the adoption of virtual care and telehealth services. Due to fear of infection, patients worldwide did not prefer visits to healthcare facilities. According to the data published by T-MOBILE US, INC. (U.S.) in 2021, over 51% of the population in the U.S. were concerned about visiting a hospital or any other healthcare facility during the initial stage of the pandemic. However, technology-enabled services allowed healthcare professionals to continue to address patient concerns and deliver efficient care services while mitigating the risk of infection to staff, clinicians, and patients. The high reliability and connectivity offered by 5G are expected to increase the adoption of telehealth services with advanced videoconferencing experience.
5G also provides a more flexible approach, supporting telehealth with a smartphone or tablet. Additionally, the implementation of 5G in telehealth further enables the fundamental democratization of healthcare. Patients are not restricted by location and can access top medical specialists or professionals despite residing in another country.
