Market Overview:
The Global RFID in Healthcare Market size was valued at USD 2.02 billion in 2021 and is projected to reach a value of USD 12.06 billion by 2030, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 21.5% over the forecast period (2022-2030).
Market Introduction:
The adoption of Radio Frequency Identification technology (RFID) is increasing these days. It has been successful in a wide variety of industries including manufacturing, retail, and logistics. Although it is not a new technology, it has evolved a lot. RFID is now a powerful business technology for asset tracking, data collection, and equipment movement. There is a number of benefits of using Radio Frequency Identification technology (RFID) in hospital. These include the ability to provide real-time traceability of medical equipment, the location of your staff, and even your patients.
RFID technology, which uses wireless communication to identify and track people and devices, has gained strong adoption in healthcare in recent years. When paired with RTLS or indoor positioning systems, RFID tags allow healthcare providers to track not only newborns but older patients with dementia or other cognitive issues. Hospitals also use Radio Frequency Identification technology (RFID) devices to monitor hand hygiene for infection control and measure temperature. In addition to improving patient safety, this technology can help hospitals save money by enabling staff to work more efficiently and productively.
What is the Global RFID in Healthcare Market Drivers?
The growing need for patient monitoring due to an aging population, progress in product development, and increased support by the government for the adoption of RFID technology. Furthermore, the future of RFID in the healthcare market is expected to be favorable due to the increasing demand due to R&D activities being carried out in the companies, expansion of internet connectivity with an increasing rate of mobile adoption.
Increasing operational efficiency in healthcare management systems and the advantages of RFID over common tags are driving the global RFID in healthcare market.
In addition, privacy concerns and difficulties in measuring production may hinder the overall growth rate of the global RFID in healthcare market.
