Rise in use of medical services will also underlie gains
Cleveland, OH, May 25, 2023 — US electronic health records (EHRs) revenues are forecast to rise 3.0% per annum in nominal dollars through 2027, according to Electronic Health Records: United States, a report recently released by Freedonia Focus Reports. EHR vendors will benefit from ongoing regulatory requirements and continued growth in medical services utilization, which will allow healthcare providers to install new EHR systems or replace older systems, and purchase ongoing hosting, maintenance, and support services. Medicare penalties for noncompliance with EHR “meaningful use” requirements will support implementation efforts by healthcare providers.
Faster growth will be constrained by the already completed installations over the historical period, as most hospitals and physicians have already implemented EHRs. In addition, the ongoing consolidation among hospitals and the merger of hospitals with physician practices will increase the negotiating power of many clients against vendors.
In 2023, revenues are projected to expand 3.2%, representing a slight uptick from the previous year. Faster growth will be constrained as 2022 levels already surpassed 2019 revenues, limiting prospects for rebound-fueled gains.
