Biometrics As A Service In Healthcare Market Size Worth $2.43 Billion By 2030

Biometrics As A Service In Healthcare Market Growth & Trends

The global biometrics as a service in healthcare market size is expected to reach USD 2.43 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 17.6% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is propelled by the increasing adoption of biometrics across healthcare organizations due to its cost-effectiveness, ease of deployment, and data security management. The demand for biometrics as a service in healthcare is expected to constantly rise as healthcare organizations are realizing the need to digitize their operations and move on from the traditional method of patient record management.

Biometrics as a service helps healthcare organizations integrate their operations and services with cloud technology and also modify these services according to their convenience. An increase in the number of cyber-attacks and medical data theft has been one of the driving factors in the market. Although, the privacy of the biometric data being stored on the cloud is a rising concern, especially in the case of public cloud deployment.

The adoption of biometrics as a service increased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The spread of the COVID virus was a constant risk to patients and healthcare professionals during the pandemic. Hence, the use of contactless biometrics gained popularity in a rush to contain the spread of and secure healthcare premises. Consumer apps, surveillance, remote access, and pharmacy dispensing are some of the major healthcare tools integrated into cloud-based biometrics. As a result of limitations to physical interactions, many of the patients require remote treatment/monitoring. This resulted in the adoption of biometric solutions for remote identification on a large scale.

The biometric system can supplement the user's verification to healthcare IT frameworks (online and local) and support the institution's Identity and Access Management (IAM) strategies. User verification concerning fast identity online (FIDO) specifications gives a lot less complex and far more secure system, than password-based verification, and is structured given privacy compliance for scalable and open frameworks across sites and applications.
