Healthcare Application Programing Interfaces Market

Healthcare Application Programing Interfaces Market Outlook - 2027

Application program interface is a code that allows two software programs to communicate with each other. The healthcare application programming interfaces allow the healthcare providers to create new ways to engage and connect with those patients through web, mobile, and social apps. They play an important role in healthcare data exchange, whether for data analytics, medical research, or creating innovative ways to access the EHR. They show up at the place where two software components interact, whether in an operating system or on the web. They help in facilitating the incredible connectivity that is expected in the digital era. They have main application in the management of the flow of information between a healthcare organization’s internal application, EHR, and other data exchange tools. Researchers accessing a population health database might rely on an API to pull real-time data and analytics from various sources. They can also make it simpler to grant patients access to their medical records online. Its servers as type of standardized gateway for healthcare data that help decrease the software development time, decrease the storage space required on the endpoint devices, and overcome the differences in the standard or programing languages used to create the data that lives at either end of the bridge. It has the significant potential in positively disrupting healthcare interoperability, though it is facing some of the challenges, which the modern API technology have tried to resolve it in other industries.

COVID-19 Scenario Analysis:

With the outbreak of COVID-19 globally and the stipulated lockout, there is an ongoing downturn in the healthcare market. COVID-19 was equally disastrous for major world economies, especially the healthcare sector. Prominent stakeholders are continuing to adapt their strategy to the rapidly changing situation. COVID-19 is projected to have significant long-term impacts on the healthcare industry. Countries and major players would have to undertake critical healthcare changes until the crisis takes a back seat.

Technological progress, cost containment, and increased access will in the near future be an integral part of healthcare reforms. Digital health and telehealth have taken a front seat in the ongoing outbreak. COVID-19 re-emphasized the importance of remote diagnosis, care, and consultation. Over the past few years, regulatory and behavioral barriers have slowed telehealth growth. However, since many healthcare providers are currently working on video conferencing and telephone calls, this segment's growth will increase several folds over the next two years. The social distancing measures also mandated online consultation of patients with moderate symptoms. In addition, it greatly reduces the burden on hospitals already swamped by counts of COVID-19 patients. Medical IoT devices that are used at home with patients are now being used for optimizing outpatient treatment and minimizing repeat visits, and these devices can be further used in a crisis situation. The pandemic led to severe resource constraints. This is expected to result in the development of competitive pricing and value-based pricing models, which will accelerate the market growth in future.

Top impacting factors: market scenario analysis, trends, drivers, impact analysis

Increase in adoption of application programming interfaces integrated electronic health records (EHR), which offer ease and simplicity of healthcare data accessibility is expected to drive the growth of the healthcare application programing interfaces market. Furthermore, increase in improvement of the patient outcomes as well as increased patient satisfaction also fuel the growth of the market. Rise in development of the quality in healthcare is also contributing in the market growth. Moreover, the continuation of services like wearable devices and remote patient monitoring boosts the growth of the market. Increase in the funding for the development and rise in initiatives from the major industry players to develop a completely standardized application programming interface further boost the growth of the market. Furthermore, increase in the need for healthcare integration will also make sure high industry profits and increase the growth of the healthcare application programing interfaces market.   

However, loss of significant patient information or manipulation in the patient information and various issues related to confidentiality breaches are some of the factors that restrain the growth of the healthcare application programing interfaces market.

New product launches to flourish the market

In June 2018, the launch of healthcare application programming interface was announced by the Apple Health. This helps the developers to access EHR data of patients from more then 500 hospitals in the U.S. 

In April 2020, the launch of cloud healthcare API v1 was announced by the Google company. This helps protect patient privacy and also make it interoperable for COVID-19 research purpose.

Surge in the usage of the Healthcare API

Increase in the expenditure for the development and rise in initiatives from the major industry players to develop a completely standardized application programming interface drive the usage of the healthcare API. Increase in the adoption of integrated healthcare API can also help to surge the usage of the healthcare API.
