Abstract
Description
Telehealth is an evolving method of remotely managing chronic conditions such
as hypertension and diabetes. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases,
combined with the ageing population and other demographic pressures, are
forcing healthcare providers to evaluate their structure and the way they
manage patients' care. The problems facing healthcare providers are severely
evident now and are set to worsen and so change is necessary. Telehealth has
been heralded as a potential saviour for over-burdened healthcare providers
looking to maximise their resources.
InMedica' s aim in writing this report is to provide marketing and technical
executives with an up-to-date, comprehensive assessment of the current state
of telehealth, and its market potential in the short, medium and long-term.
Some of the topics discussed in this report include:
- The factors driving the interest in telehealth and how telehealth is being
used for health management today.
- A discussion of the solutions and benefits telehealth may provide patients
and care providers.
- Case studies of existing telehealth trials and the lessons that can be
learnt.
- An evaluation of the market barriers preventing telehealth being adopted
by professional care providers on a large scale.
- A detailed look at the potential market opportunity telehealth presents to
companies from a wide cross-section of industries.
- An analysis of the developing relationship between professional healthcare
services and the consumer market for telehealth-enabled medical devices.
- 10 year market forecasts for home-use medical devices that will be used
within the telehealth infrastructure for both professional and consumer-driven
telehealth services.

services.
