The global healthcare compliance software market size is expected to reach USD 6.5 billion by 2030 and is expected to expand at 11.6% CAGR from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The rising data breaches in the healthcare industry and costs associated with manual compliance management are expected to boost the demand for healthcare compliance management software during the forecast period. According to the HIPAA Journal, around 5,150 data breaches of 500 and above records have been reported in healthcare from 2009 to 2022.
In healthcare, organizations are facing challenges associated with the ever-changing data privacy laws and compliance requirements. Hence, the cost associated with compliance attainment has significantly grown in the highly regulated healthcare industry. For instance, as per the article published in Hyperproof in August 2022, on an average around USD 10,000 per employee is spent on regulatory costs in the U.S. It costs around USD 1.9 trillion annually for regulatory compliance and its economic effects in the U.S. Hence, in order to reduce the overhead costs associated with the compliance, many healthcare organizations are adopting this software, which is contributing to the growth of the market.
The COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted the growth of the industry owing to the changing laws and policies during the pandemic and post-pandemic circumstances. The government of many countries launched waivers that are expected to expire. Hence, organizations are expected to face challenges regarding compliance and increasing adoption of this software. The changing medical billing and coding guidelines in developed countries every year are expected to boost the demand for these solutions.
Ongoing technological advancements such as patient portals, wearable heart monitors, mobile clinics, and virtual doctor visits are continuously merging protected health information (PHI) with the technology, which are creating HIPAA and privacy related issues. Hence, with the growing demand for compliance solutions in the healthcare sector, companies are launching innovative products to cater to the ever-growing demand. For instance, in May 2022, LaunchDarkly launched the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliance for its Feature Management Platform. This new addition is expected to support healthcare organizations in enhancing digital experiences for providers and patients.
The companies in the market are adopting several strategies, including acquisition and partnership with other companies to increase the adoption of the solutions. For instance, in August 2022, Emarsys, an SAP company, became a subscriber for the ClearAdvantage, HIPAA, and Cybersecurity compliance program of the ClearWater, HIPAA compliance, and Enterprise Cyber Risk Management solution provider. The program is expected to reduce around 25% to 50% of the cost associated with the traditional methods.
