The healthcare companion robots market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $5.17 billion in 2023 to $6.23 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.4%. Historical growth can be attributed to the acceptance and integration of advancements, applications in education and therapy, enhanced human-robot interaction, healthcare labor shortages, and the drive to minimize human-to-human contact.
The healthcare companion robots market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $12.46 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.9%. The projected growth in the forecast period is driven by progress in robotics and AI, the provision of personalized healthcare services, increased awareness of mental health, improved support for rehabilitation, and a focus on cost-effectiveness. Significant trends anticipated during this period involve the integration of AI, ongoing technological advancements, innovations in product development, and strategic collaborations within the industry.
The surge in the elderly population is poised to be the driving force behind the healthcare companion robots market's growth. As the aging demographic expands, the demand for companion robots rises due to their ability to provide in-home care and companionship for the elderly. Governments worldwide are also initiating measures to endorse the use of healthcare companion robots. For instance, in 2022, New York State collaborated with Intuition Robotics, an Israel-based software company, to distribute such robots to approximately 500 individuals. The global aging population is projected to grow significantly; by 2030, 1 in 6 individuals will be aged 60 or older, and the number of those 60 and above is expected to double by 2050, reaching 2.1 billion. By 2050, there will be an additional 426 million individuals aged 80 or above compared to the current figures. Hence, the escalating aging populace is forecasted to propel the healthcare companion robots market's expansion.
The burgeoning demand for medical procedures is anticipated to fuel the growth of the healthcare companion robots market. These robots are tailored to assist healthcare professionals during procedures, offer emotional support to patients, and aid in post-procedural care. Notably, as per The National Health Expenditure Accounts (NHEA) in the United States, healthcare spending surged by 2.7 percent in 2021, reaching $4.3 trillion or $12,914 per person. Health spending accounted for 18.3 percent of the nation's Gross Domestic Product. Hence, the escalating demand for medical procedures is projected to drive the healthcare companion robots market's growth during the forecast period.
Technological advancements stand as a significant trend within the healthcare companion robots market. Manufacturers of these robots are prioritizing the integration of cutting-edge technologies to cater to the emotional and personal needs of patients.
