Rising Prevalence of Chronic Illnesses
Presently, there is a rise in the prevalence of chronic illnesses caused by inactive lifestyles, such as prolonged sitting, decreased physical activity, and unhealthy eating habits. These lifestyle factors contribute to the emergence of conditions like obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. For instance, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, around 129 million people in the United States have at least one significant chronic disease (for example, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, or hypertension). The increase in chronic diseases is also driving hospitalization rates and the demand for effective treatment methods by incorporating AI. AI in healthcare is improving the screening process and detection of various chronic disorders. These factors further positively influence artificial intelligence in healthcare market forecast.
Growing Demand for Personalized Medicines
The growing demand for personalized medicine is driving the market's growth. For instance, the global precision medicine market size reached US$ 75.2 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 168.3 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1% during 2024-2032. Precision medicine aims to tailor treatments based on individual genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. AI can analyze vast amounts of genetic data and identify patterns that lead to more accurate and personalized treatment recommendations. These factors are expected to propel artificial intelligence in healthcare market growth in the coming years.
Remote Patient Monitoring
Remote patient monitoring enables individuals to track their health from the comfort of their own homes, eliminating the need for frequent trips to healthcare facilities. This limits the inconvenience of travel, waiting rooms, and other healthcare-related inconveniences, leading to improved patient satisfaction. It enhances healthcare accessibility, particularly for those in remote or underserved areas, allowing patients to connect with healthcare providers and receive high-quality care regardless of their location. For instance, in July 2024, KORE, a Georgia-based Internet of Things (IoT) firm, and Australian company mCare Digital unveiled the mCareWatch 241, a virtual patient monitoring smartwatch. The watch includes an SOS button that allows users to request emergency assistance, call capabilities, GPS tracking, reminders, a heart rate monitor, speed dialing, fall detection, a pedometer, a geo-fence alarm, non-movement detection, and a mobile app and web dashboard, and thereby boosting the artificial intelligence in healthcare market revenue.
IMARC Group provides an analysis of the key trends in each segment of the global artificial intelligence in healthcare market report, along with forecasts at the global, regional, and country levels from 2025-2033.

They digitally store and manage patient health records and analyze and extract valuable insights from the vast amount of patient data, facilitating decision-making, personalized treatment planning, and clinical research. They utilize computer vision and machine learning (ML) algorithms to assist radiologists in detecting abnormalities, making diagnoses, and providing quantitative measurements. They can extract relevant information, classify and categorize text, and enable voice-to-text transcription. They also enable continuous monitoring of vital signs, activity levels, and other health parameters to predict health deterioration and alert healthcare providers in real-time.
Breakup by Technology:
Machine learning holds the largest share in the market
A detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on the technology have also been provided in the report. This includes machine learning, context aware computing, natural language processing, and others. According to the report, machine learning accounted for the largest market share.
Machine learning (ML) algorithms are employed to analyze patient data, such as electronic health records (EHR), medical imaging, and genetic information, to assist in disease diagnosis and prognosis. These algorithms identify patterns, classify diseases, and predict patient outcomes, aiding healthcare professionals in making accurate and timely decisions. They are capable of detecting abnormalities, segmenting organs and tumors, and assisting radiologists in interpreting images. ML-based image analysis improves diagnostic accuracy, reduces interpretation time, and enhances early detection of diseases. ML models also predict patient outcomes by analyzing large datasets, including clinical records, genomic data, and lifestyle factors. Furthermore, they can analyze EHR to uncover valuable insights, such as disease trends, treatment patterns, and population health indicators.
Breakup by Application:
Clinical trial participant identifier holds the biggest share in the market
A detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on the application have also been provided in the report. This includes robot-assisted surgery, virtual nursing assistant, administrative workflow assistance, fraud detection, dosage error reduction, clinical trial participant identifier, preliminary diagnosis, and others. According to the report, clinical trial participant identifier accounted for the largest market share.
A clinical trial participant identifier is assigned to individuals enrolled in a clinical trial to protect their privacy and confidentiality. It is used instead of personal identifying information (such as name or social security number) to ensure anonymity and protect the identity of participants. It helps ensure data integrity and security in clinical trials. By using identifiers instead of personal information, the potential for data errors or inconsistencies due to human error or data entry mistakes is reduced. It also helps protect sensitive information from being inadvertently disclosed or misused.
