certain cases to request additional information from the patients which may be of critical importance for
the providers. Integrating patient portals with other systems such as practice management system (PMS)
and electronic health record (EHR) systems can largely facilitate aggregation and interpretation of large
volumes of patient related data which can in turn assist in improving the quality of healthcare delivered to
the patients.
Some of the key factors driving the global patient portal market are, increasing adoption of
technologically advanced systems such as EHRs by the healthcare fraternity, favorable government
initiatives for implementing healthcare IT solutions and increasing awareness related to convenience
offered by patient portals among the patient community. However, factors such as data security and
privacy issues and high cost of implementing and deploying sophisticated patient portal systems can
restrain the growth of patient portal market during the forecast period.
In 2016, integrated patient portals segment held the major share of the global patient portal market as they
function as an extension to an existing system such as an EMR or an EHR. As they offer a convenient
medium to converge data from multiple systems, the segment is expected to show favorable growth
during the forecast period. With respect to the deployment mode, web-based deployment segment
dominated the patient portal market in 2016 whereas; cloud-based deployment segment is anticipated to
grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period. With respect to end users, providers segment held a
major share of the patient portal market in 2016 owing to large scale adoption of patient portal
applications by healthcare providers for managing patient engagements and communications.
