RTLS Market in Healthcare Dynamics:
Driver: Rise in market competitiveness leading to cost-effective RTLS solutions
RTLS is one of the most expensive tracking technologies. However, the rise in competitiveness in the RTLS market has led to the availability of cost-effective RTLS solutions. The emergence of innovative startups and the availability of customized solutions are the 2 key factors that have led to the rise in competitiveness in the RTLS market.
The market for RTLS technology has witnessed rapid growth with the increasing number of players entering this market with innovative RTLS features for customers. More than 150 players are active in the RTLS market; out of these, the top 5 players account for about 50% of the market share. These top companies majorly focus on healthcare, retail, and manufacturing industries and have introduced industry-specific solutions. Thus, the high competition in the RTLS market forces RTLS companies to offer application-specific customized products at affordable rates to their customers.
RTLS market players continuously strive to develop more robust and innovative solutions to stay ahead in the competition. As a result, ultra-wideband (UWB) and Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technologies have made a mark recently and are expected to witness exponential growth in the near future. Rapidly developing startups provide various innovative solutions based on new RTLS technologies such as UWB, BLE, ZigBee, and RuBee. Leantegra (US), Litum Technologies (Turkey), and Tracktio (Spain) are some key companies providing UWB technology-based RTLS solutions, while Visible Assets (US) provides highly secure and innovative RTLS solutions based on RuBee technology.
Restraint: Concerns regarding data security and privacy inhibits adoption rate of RTLS
Data security and privacy are among the major issues faced by personnel/staff in various industries, particularly in the healthcare domain. The threat of cyberattacks in healthcare has never been more prevalent and is a major issue for every organization looking to establish an RTLS entry point into their network and systems. Real-time location tracking systems are revolutionizing various industries where the efficient utilization of resources is critical. RTLS provides the whereabouts of individuals at any time and also offers the visibility required to keep people safe. However, union members in diverse industries complain that an RTLS solution can be used to monitor specific employees unfairly, that is, their break time and working hours, while in other cases, people are worried about the loss of their personal freedom.
In the US, the amount of electronic data is doubling every 3 years, driven by the increased use of the internet, smartphones, social networks, and the growth of machine-generated data, including RFID tags, sensors, and surveillance cameras. The personal medical and health data of the patient can be disclosed outside of Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) protection by several sources while undertaking routine healthcare activities such as credit card payments for physician visit co-pays and over-the-counter medications and visits to alternative medical practitioners. With the expansion of the digital world, public concern regarding privacy is increasing.
Several governments and authorities are focusing on protecting data privacy through the implementation of stringent regulations. For example, the Geolocation Privacy and Surveillance Act (GPS Act) seeks to establish a legal framework that provides clear guidelines to government agencies, commercial entities, and private citizens regarding the access and use of geolocation information. The bill would create a process whereby government agencies could get a probable cause warrant to obtain geolocation information in the same way that they currently get warrants for other types of electronic surveillance. In addition, the GPS Act would prohibit businesses from disclosing geographical tracking data about its customers to others without the customer’s permission. Despite companies educating their customers and staff regarding the use of RTLS, the concerns over data privacy still persist.
Opportunity: Need for resource utilization and workflow optimization to boost demand for RTLS
Several healthcare organizations have faced resource utilization as a major challenge while increasing their output in terms of workflow optimization, production, tracking and monitoring of assets, and reducing the costs. RTLS addresses these challenges by effectively tracking and monitoring the assets and personnel. Efficient operations and optimum utilization of existing resources help enterprises to save costs and increase profits. The installation of an RTLS allows an enterprise to utilize resources efficiently and reduce the inventory and stock management costs by tracking and managing assets in real time.
In the healthcare industry, asset tracking (both equipment and personnel) helps to improve patient safety and increase the bed utilization ratio. RTLS helps utilize the minimum available resources to provide a better yield by increasing the workflow. Maximum resource utilization in the supply chain is another area where many healthcare organizations have adopted RTLS solutions to streamline their supply chain operations. Manual stocking and inventory management is a highly error-prone and time-consuming activity that directly affects any company’s profits.
With the increase in awareness regarding the advantages of automatic asset tracking and management, RTLS solutions are expected to be penetrated more into the healthcare sector in the coming years. However, COVID-19 has led to healthcare organizations dedicating a major part of their funds toward the procurement of medical equipment and other resources required to combat COVID-19. As RTLS solutions do not fall under the essential resources category required for COVID-19 treatment, this factor is expected to hinder the penetration rate of RTLS technology in the short run.
Challenge: System incompatibility and lack of uniform standards and interoperability
End users have to choose from a wider range of available solutions; however, the lack of uniform standards makes it difficult to integrate the available solutions. The incompatibility between various infrastructures and lack of interoperability creates problems for end users.
Companies such as Zebra Technologies, STANLEY Healthcare, and Identec Group provide RTLS solutions that support more than one protocol; however, most players in the market primarily focus on a single protocol. Since different technologies operate on different protocols and frequency bands, there is no interoperability between various RTLS solutions, except solutions provided by a few vendors such as Zebra Technologies, which offers multiple RTLS technologies that are supported by the same middleware.
The biggest concern at present in the RTLS market is the availability of solutions with multiple interoperable technologies under the same roof. The installation of an RTLS solution in an organization requires changes to be made in the existing infrastructure, such as additional servers, middleware, and others. Putting a tag on asset, equipment, or personnel requires location readers to be set up in the doorways and hallways and an alteration in the protocol to locate assets. For instance, an active RFID tag needs 4 antennas to track the location of an asset. Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) may not be able to install this technology throughout the organization because of budget constraints, thereby resulting in a lack of standardization. The lack of standardization of protocols may also result in a shortage of interoperability across providers. Moreover, the practice of vendors to defer from complying with the existing standards and using proprietary technologies for tracking has been identified as one of the major barriers to the adoption of RTLS technology.
RTLS Market in Healthcare Segment Insights:
