Blockchain in Healthcare Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, Segmented By Type, By Application, By End User, By Region and Competition, 2020-2030F

Description

Global Blockchain in Healthcare Market was valued at USD 1.10 Billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 2.34 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 13.41% during the forecast period. A blockchain is defined as an expanding collection of records, referred to as blocks, which are cryptographically interconnected. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the preceding block, along with a timestamp and transaction records. The timestamp ensures that the transaction data was present at the time of block publication, enabling it to be hashed. By virtue of each block containing information about its predecessor, they form a chain, with each new block reinforcing the preceding ones. Consequently, blockchains are resistant to data tampering, as altering the data in any one block retroactively would impact all subsequent blocks. Private and public blockchains represent the primary types, although variations such as Consortium and Hybrid blockchains exist.

Blockchain technology is a novel tool that is revolutionizing various sectors, including healthcare. Within the healthcare system, Blockchain networks are employed to securely store and exchange patient data between hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, pharmacies, and physicians. In the medical field, blockchain applications have the potential to precisely identify critical and potentially harmful errors. As a result, it can significantly enhance the performance, security, and transparency of medical data sharing within the healthcare system. By leveraging this technology, medical institutions can gain valuable insights and improve the analysis of medical records. Further, approximately 80% of the medical studies fail to produce the desired results due to errors such as fraud, data falsification and trial misconduct. It is important to mention that more than 690 healthcare data breaches were reported between July 2021 and June 2022. As a result, the adoption of blockchain technology (also referred to as distributed ledger technology (DLT)), has emerged to be a promising approach.

Key Market Drivers

Rising Incidence of Healthcare Data Breaches

The healthcare industry has witnessed a significant increase in the number of data breaches in recent years. The advent of digital technologies has presented an opportunity to eliminate the reliance on third-party custodians, all while ensuring security and transparency. The utilization of blockchain technology to address specific challenges, such as the efficient exchange of data among healthcare providers, directly impacts accurate diagnosis, appropriate treatment, and the overall ability of healthcare providers to deliver cost-effective care. The increasing requirements for medical data storage and security present numerous benefits for medical staff, patients, and healthcare facilities. Utilizing blockchain technology, with its cross-checking, encryption, and decentralization capabilities, enhances the security of medical data, thus driving market growth. Governments of various nations are prioritizing the digitization of the healthcare system and related sectors, recognizing its potential to enhance patient participation, improve health outcomes, and enable better forecasts, among other advantages.

Key Market Challenges

Lack of Operation Knowledge

In terms of managing records, there is significant variation among healthcare physician providers and insurance payers. Encouraging all these organizations to adopt blockchain technology without a streamlined approach, such as a single payer system, poses considerable challenges. However, the effectiveness of the entire system is compromised if any organization is unwilling to embrace it. Convincing them to transition from paper records to electronic healthcare records (EHR) using blockchain is indeed a formidable task. Healthcare is a heavily regulated industry, with laws like HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) in the United States and similar regulations in other countries. Lack of knowledge about how blockchain can align with these regulations can lead to compliance issues and legal challenges.

Key Market Trends

Rising Requirement to Store and Safeguard Medical Data

The requirements for medical data storage and security have witnessed a significant increase, offering numerous benefits to medical staff, patients, and healthcare facilities. The utilization of blockchain technology, with its cross-checking, encryption, and decentralization capabilities, plays a pivotal role in ensuring the security of medical data, thereby fostering market growth. Governments of various nations are prioritizing the digitization of the healthcare system and related business sectors, recognizing its potential to enhance patient participation, improve health outcomes, and enable better forecasting, among other advantages.
