[122 Pages Report] The patient safety and risk management solutions market is estimated to be worth USD 2.2 billion by 2024 from a value of USD 1.3 billion in 2019, growing at a CAGR of 11.2% during the forecast period. The rising need to curtail healthcare costs, increasing incidences of medical errors & hospital-acquired infections, and growing government initiatives to improve patient safety and patient outcomes are key drivers of this market. On the other hand, the dearth of in-house IT expertise and the reluctance of healthcare providers to adopt new methods of patient safety and risk management are expected to restrain the growth of the market to a certain extent during the forecast period.
Based on type, the market for governance, risk, & compliance (GRC) solutions is expected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. The high growth of this segment is attributed to the increasing number of adverse events to patients across the globe and the effective utilization of GRC solutions. GRC solutions provide safe, high-quality care to patients while maintaining compliance with industry standards and regulations.
The market for ambulatory care centers is projected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. The high growth rate of this segment can be attributed to the rising need to minimize the risk associated with patient harm. In addition, implementation of patient safety and risk management software is vital for ambulatory care centers as it helps them in the effective management of patient safety events.
The patient safety and risk management software market in APAC is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Much of this growth is driven by the increasing patient population in this region, rapid return on investment (ROI), and rising government initiatives to improve the patient safety & patient outcomes in healthcare. Several healthcare organizations in Asia are actively moving towards digitization to streamline their entire workflow and ensure patient care and safety that resulted in an increased demand for patient safety and risk management software to ensure better patient care.
The key players in the global patient safety and risk management solutions market are Clarity Group Inc. (US), Conduent Inc. (US), Prista Corporation (US), Quantros Inc. (US), Riskonnect Inc. (US), RiskQual Technologies (US), RLDatix (Canada), Smartgate Solutions Ltd. (UK), The Patient Safety Company (Netherlands), and Verge Health (US).
RLDatix (Canada) is one of the leading players in the market and accounted for the largest share in 2018. RLDatix is one of the leading providers of cloud-based and integrated software solutions for patient safety and risk management to various industries, including healthcare. To strengthen its market position and to broaden its product offerings, the company majorly focuses on agreement, acquisitions, and mergers. For example, in May 2019, the company entered into an agreement to acquire iContracts (US) to broaden its reach into the governance, risk management, & compliance space.
Verge Health (US) held the second-largest share in the patient safety management software market in 2018. The company offers a robust portfolio of patient safety solutions, including governance, risk, & compliance. To sustain its strong position in the market, the company focuses on strengthening its software platform through organic and inorganic strategies, such as product launches and partnerships. For instance, in February 2019, the company entered into a partnership with Texas Hospital Association (US) to enhance its governance, risk, & compliance platform and allowed the Texas Hospital Association to effectively and efficiently manage risk and provide better patient care.
