The global AI in patient engagement market size is expected to reach USD 23.1 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 21.2% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is driven by the growing demand for AI-based personalized treatment plans and healthcare experiences and the emergence of digital platforms and necessity for omnichannel approach. In addition, the increasing role of artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing pharmacy efficiency and managing supply chain complexities and business strategies by market players is also driving the market growth. For instance, in May 2024, EmpiRx Health introduced Clinically, a new AI-powered platform that incorporates established technologies. This platform enhances pharmacy claims processing and clinical evaluations and includes a unique population health engine, reinforcing EmpiRx Health's clinical-focused Pharmacy Benefit Management (PBM) approach.
Moreover, the growing prevalence of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension, necessitates continuous patient engagement & management, which AI can effectively facilitate. Furthermore, AI technologies such as machine learning and natural language processing (NLP) can significantly enhance patient engagement by providing personalized support & interventions. These technologies analyze patient data to offer tailored recommendations, reminders, & educational content, improving adherence and health outcomes. For instance, in March 2022, Uniphore entered into a strategic partnership with SpinSci Technologies, a provider of digital patient engagement solutions, to improve patient access and interaction with healthcare providers. This collaboration integrated Uniphore’s conversational AI and automation technology into SpinSci Technologies Patient Access Care solutions, which are compatible with Electronic Health Records (EHR) systems. The integration aimed to enhance efficiency for contact center agents and streamline patient self-service workflows.
The integration of AI enables healthcare organizations to deliver tailored educational content based on individual patient preferences, health literacy levels, and language proficiency, thereby improving patient engagement & adherence to treatment plans. For instance, in February 2024, Ascend, a startup platform backed by the Accolade Group, announced its intention to deliver educational and healthcare services tailored to specific requirements utilizing AI. As a result of such initiatives, the patient education functionality segment is expected to witness substantial growth, driving overall market expansion in the coming years.
In addition, the market in North America is driven by the integration of AI, enabling healthcare organizations to deliver tailored educational content based on individual patient preferences, health literacy levels, and language proficiency, thereby improving patient engagement & adherence to treatment plans. For instance, in February 2024, Ascend, a startup platform backed by the Accolade Group, announced its intention to deliver educational and healthcare services tailored to specific requirements utilizing AI. As a result of such initiatives, the patient education functionality segment is expected to witness substantial growth, driving overall market expansion in the coming years.
