3. Epic Systems Corporation (US) and Cerner Corporation (US) are the Key Players in the Ambulatory EHR Market

The global ambulatory EHR market is projected to reach USD 7.7 billion by 2027 from an estimated USD 5.7 million in 2022, at a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period. Growth in this market is driven by increase in the COVID-19 patient volume, the growing usage of EHR solutions, and the increasing need to curtail healthcare costs. On the other hand, heavy infrastructure investments and the high cost of deployment are limiting the growth of the global ambulatory EHR market to a certain extent.

The global ambulatory EHR market is fragmented with the presence of many regional and global players like Epic Systems Corporation (US), Cerner Corporation (US), Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (US), Medical Information Technology, Inc. (US), Computer Programs and Systems, Inc. (US). These players have adopted various growth strategies such as partnerships, agreements, collaborations, and new product launches to increase their presence in the global market.

Epic Systems Corporation (US) was the dominant player in the global ambulatory EHR market in 2021. An increasing number of healthcare systems that provide outpatient facilities are adopting Epic’s EHR systems, and this trend is expected to continue in the near future. AdventHealth (US), for instance, announced the implementation of Epic’s EHR across its 50 hospital campuses and 1,200-plus care sites in February 2020. In June 2020, the Good Samaritan Board of Governors, based in Indiana, US, announced plans to use Epic’s EHR solutions for its outpatient services medical record system at the Samaritan Center. In July 2020, University Health System (UHS), which provides outpatient healthcare facilities in the US remotely and virtually, implemented Epic’s EHR solutions. The company focuses on innovating EHR solutions to maintain its position as a leading player globally. In this regard, the company developed an EHR tool that would use machine-learning algorithms and was tested by Stanford Health clinicians in April 2020. This tool helped predict if a patient suffering from COVID-19 will need intensive care.

Cerner Corporation (US) held the second position in the global ambulatory EHR market in 2021. The company’s comprehensive product portfolio includes Cerner PowerChart, Cerner Millennium, and Cerner CareTracker. The company also provides services for these solutions, such as consulting services, IT management & alignment, record retrieval, and network & security. Cerner’s leadership in the market can be attributed to its efficient sales network and expansion strategies in the US, Europe, Asia, and Latin America. Over the years, the company has maintained its position in the market through continuous innovation in its EHR solutions. For instance, Cerner (US) collaborated with Amazon (US) in October 2019 for a project called Project Apollo. This project aimed to develop a next-generation cloud-based EHR platform. Cerner is consistently improving its product offerings by integrating its EHR solutions with other healthcare IT solutions, such as telehealth and patient portal platforms, to promote virtual patient care. The company collaborates with other healthcare IT companies such as ResMed (US) and Change Healthcare (US) for this purpose. With the outbreak of COVID-19 globally, virtual patient visits are being encouraged among healthcare professionals to avoid the spread of contagion
