Thailand Telehealth Market Size To Reach $9.51 Billion By 2030

Thailand Telehealth Market Growth & Trends

The Thailand telehealth market size is anticipated to reach USD 9.51 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 29.1% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growing adoption of telehealth and digital healthcare, shortage of medical professionals, and rising demand for healthcare services contribute to the market growth. Moreover, an increase in the number of initiatives by market players in terms of technological advancements and a growing focus on telehealth technologies have led to increased funding in the digital health space. This is expected to impact the market positively. According to a report published by Galen Growth, a total of USD 11.64 million in venture capital funding was raised through 12 digital health deals from 2019 to 2024.

The demand for healthcare is growing in Thailand due to the rapidly aging population and rising prevalence of chronic diseases. According to the World Bank, the percentage of the population aged 65 and above was 15% in the region in 2022. The working population in the region is also rapidly growing. According to an article published in Trading Economics, the number of employed persons in Thailand rose to 40.09 million in Q3 of 2023, increasing from 39.68 million in Q2 of 2023. The average number of employed persons in Thailand from 1998 to 2023 was 36,244.09 thousand, reaching a record high of 40,091.33 thousand in the third quarter of 2023. This, in turn, is increasing demand for high-quality care. Thus, increasing healthcare needs along with a shortage of medical professionals is estimated to drive the telehealth market’s growth in Thailand.

Moreover, insurance companies have partnered with telehealth platforms for free customer consultations. In September 2023, Doctor Anywhere (DA) partnered with Allianz Partners to provide complete telehealth services to the members of Allianz's international health in Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines. In April 2020, insurance providers AIG and Cigna Singapore partnered with Doctor Anywhere to offer their policyholders a free COVID-19 Medical Advisory Clinic service. Through Medical Advisory Clinic, users can opt for video consultation using the Doctor Anywhere mobile app. In April 2020, AXA Asia introduced its free teleconsultation program in countries such as the Philippines, Thailand, and Indonesia for its insurance customers.
