The trend of digital health technology is on an upward curve presently and will remain so in the decade to come. It is estimated to exceed over $379 billion by 2024. This colossal growth will fuel the need to integrate these latest technologies into the EHR (Electronic Health Record) for any health system. EHR integration enables us to leverage data and insights from digital health tools providing important information, alerts and opportunities including the financial and operational guidance at the point of care.

As a consequence of this demand, the digital healthcare market is projected to reach $500 billion by 2025.

The COVID-19 pandemic is driving the healthcare system to the limit. The rapid rise in the demand for healthcare facilities and providers has burdened the system, making it unable to operate with absolute efficiency.
