The U.S. RFID in healthcare market size is anticipated to reach USD 5.24 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 16.95% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising demand for asset management, rising patient safety and care, increasing need for efficient workflow management and increased compliance and regulatory requirements are some of the key drivers.
The incorporation of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology in the U.S. healthcare sector has transformed the industry, notably enhancing inventory and resource management. RFID technology's efficacy stems from its capacity to substantially boost inventory management capabilities. By leveraging RFID tags and readers, businesses are accurately tracking and monitoring their stock levels in real-time, thereby preventing stock-outs and overstock scenarios. This leads to a more efficient supply chain, reduced operational expenses, and ultimately, heightened customer satisfaction.
The increasing adoption of pharmacy automation in hospitals and pharmacies is another significant factor fueling the growth of the RFID market. By seamlessly integrating RFID technology with automated dispensing systems, healthcare facilities are optimizing their inventory management and workflow processes, ultimately enabling faster and more accurate medication delivery to patients. In addition, the growing focus on patient safety and comfort is contributing to the expansion of the RFID market in the U.S. medical sector. For instance, in October 2021, AmerisourceBergen enhanced its acute care medication tray solution by introducing universal RFID-tagging, endorsed by RAIN Alliance, facilitating streamlined inventory management across the U.S. health systems. Moreover, they introduced a mobile app enabling convenient product scanning from any location within the health system, eliminating the requirement for extra equipment.
