The healthcare chatbots market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $0.35 billion in 2023 to $0.45 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25.7%. The growth observed in the historic period can be attributed to several factors, including the increase in healthcare costs, a shortage of healthcare professionals, initiatives focused on patient engagement, the rise of telehealth services, the demand for immediate healthcare information, and regulatory support for digital health.
The healthcare chatbots market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.18 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as the integration of healthcare chatbots with electronic health records, the expansion of remote patient monitoring, growing awareness of mental health, increased adoption of personalized medicine, and the implementation of cybersecurity measures. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the integration with health apps and platforms, advancements in natural language processing (NLP), the use of voice-enabled healthcare chatbots, the deployment of virtual health assistants for remote monitoring, and the development of AI-based diagnostic chatbots.
The healthcare Chatbot market is anticipated to witness growth due to the increasing demand for virtual health assistance. Virtual health assistance employs digital technologies to deliver healthcare services and information to patients remotely. Telemedicine, a form of virtual health assistance utilizing communication technologies, connects patients with healthcare providers. Healthcare Chatbots integrated with virtual health assistance enhance access to healthcare services. For example, in 2021, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that 37% of adults had used telemedicine within a year, with office-based physicians' usage increasing sixfold to 87% in 2021. Consequently, the rising need for virtual health assistance is expected to propel the healthcare Chatbots market forward.
The growth of the healthcare Chatbot market is expected to be driven by the increasing shortage of healthcare professionals. This shortage refers to a deficit in qualified individuals with the necessary skills to meet the demand for healthcare services. Healthcare Chatbots play a crucial role in addressing this shortage by automating tasks and providing basic healthcare support, including symptom checking, appointment scheduling, and medical guidance. Acting as a cost-effective and scalable solution, Chatbots help bridge the gap in providing essential healthcare support. According to Oracle in January 2023, an estimated 6.5 million healthcare workers are expected to retire by 2026, with only 1.9 million new workers entering the field, resulting in a nationwide deficit of over 4 million workers if current labor patterns persist. Therefore, the increasing shortage of healthcare professionals is a significant driver for the healthcare Chatbot market.
