Veterinary EHR Market Size To Reach $1.37 Billion By 2030

Veterinary EHR Market Growth & Trends

The global veterinary EHR market size is expected to reach USD 1.37 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 11.1% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The primary drivers of market growth include the digitalization across veterinary healthcare, rapid technological advancements, increasing pet population and increasing number of veterinary hospitals and clinics. Innovations in cloud-based solutions, AI, and telehealth integration make EHR systems more user-friendly and efficient for veterinary practices. Moreover, with more households owning pets and treating them as family members, the demand for quality veterinary care is increasing. This drives the adoption of advanced healthcare systems like EHRs to improve patient care.

According to Canadian Veterinary Medical Association, there were approximately 15,459 veterinarians in Canada in 2023, with approximately 4,223 number of practices in Canada. As more veterinary hospitals and clinics open, the need for efficient patient data management becomes essential. EHR systems streamline record-keeping, improve workflow efficiency, and enhance the quality of care by providing accurate and real-time information about patient health histories. Veterinary clinics and hospitals face increasing pressure to maintain accurate, standardized, and easily accessible records. EHR solutions help meet these regulatory requirements, promoting adoption as the number of veterinary practices grows. In addition, the expansion of veterinary services is driving the adoption of more integrated and automated technologies. Modern EHR systems are equipped with features that allow seamless integration with diagnostic tools, lab equipment, and telehealth platforms, which are increasingly in demand as veterinary care expands.

Moreover, according to news published by Times of India, in January 2023, consumer behavior has evolved drastically in recent years, and almost every company is adapting. One of the most significant changes is adapting to digitization and everything online. This trend has made geographical location no longer crucial as long as one has an internet connection and a linked gadget. Because of this, modern practices such as remote or hybrid working—which were practically unheard of a few years ago—have proliferated. Technology is also lowering entrance barriers and leveling the playing field for small businesses. Currently, through technology, one can have access to a vet sitting thousands of miles away and vets catering to patients across geographies. 

The growing number of veterinary patient visits is indeed driving the demand for Electronic Health Records (EHR) in the veterinary market. As clinics handle more patients, they need systems that streamline operations. Veterinary EHRs help manage patient records, appointments, billing, and treatment plans, making them essential tools for growing practices. EHR systems provide analytics that help veterinarians make better clinical decisions. With increasing patient data, having a digital system for real-time access to health records becomes crucial. Overall, the growing veterinary patient footfall directly boosts the need for advanced digital solutions, supporting the market growth.
