Mercado mundial de biometría sanitaria: tendencias de la industria y pronóstico hasta 2031

Análisis y tamaño del mercado de biometría sanitaria

El crecimiento del mercado está impulsado por la creciente adopción de sistemas de registros médicos electrónicos (EHR) y la digitalización de los procesos de atención médica, que requieren sólidas medidas de verificación de identidad. Por ejemplo, en agosto de 2022, el parlamento francés (Assemblée Nationale) aprobó el Proyecto 242-95, que asigna 20 millones de euros (aproximadamente 20,4 millones de dólares) destinados a desarrollar una versión biométrica de las tarjetas sanitarias de los ciudadanos (Carte Vitale). Esta iniciativa subraya el impulso del mercado, impulsado por la creciente adopción de sistemas de registros médicos electrónicos (EHR) y la digitalización en curso de los procesos de atención médica.

El tamaño del mercado mundial de biometría sanitaria se valoró en 8.750 millones de dólares en 2023 y se prevé que alcance los 37.870 millones de dólares en 2031, con una CAGR del 20,10% durante el período de previsión de 2024 a 2031.

Market Definition

Healthcare biometrics refers to the application of biometric technology in healthcare settings for verifying and authenticating the identity of individuals based on their unique biological traits. These traits may include fingerprints, palm prints, iris patterns, facial recognition, voice recognition, or even behavioral characteristics like gait or typing rhythm.   

Healthcare Biometrics Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increasing Need for Patient Data Security

Rising concerns over data breaches and medical identity theft have compelled healthcare facilities to embrace biometric solutions as a cornerstone of their security strategies. Biometric technologies such as fingerprint recognition, iris scanning, and facial recognition offer unparalleled accuracy in verifying patient identities, ensuring only authorized personnel have access to sensitive health information. By implementing biometric authentication, healthcare providers can mitigate the risks associated with traditional methods like passwords or ID cards, thereby enhancing patient data security and compliance with stringent privacy regulations.

• Integration with Electronic Health Records (EHR)

The seamless integration of biometric authentication with electronic health records (EHR) systems represents a transformative leap in healthcare efficiency and patient care quality. By linking biometric identifiers with patient records, healthcare facilities streamline the identification and authentication process, reducing administrative burdens and minimizing errors associated with manual data entry. This integration enhances the accuracy and accessibility of patient information across healthcare settings, facilitating quicker diagnoses, personalized treatment plans, and improved care coordination among multidisciplinary teams. Moreover, biometric-enabled EHR systems enable secure and convenient access to medical histories and treatment protocols, empowering healthcare providers to deliver timely driving the market growth.

Opportunities

• Rise in Healthcare IT Spending    

As healthcare systems worldwide undergo digital transformation, there is an increasing emphasis on enhancing patient care delivery, improving operational efficiencies, and ensuring data security. Investments in advanced IT infrastructure, including electronic health records (EHR) systems, telemedicine platforms, and patient management solutions, create a conducive environment for the adoption of biometric technologies. By integrating biometric authentication with these systems, healthcare organizations can strengthen their security protocols, streamline workflow processes, and enhance patient satisfaction through more personalized and efficient healthcare services. The rise in healthcare IT spending presents a significant growth opportunity for biometric solution providers aiming to expand their market presence.      

• Technological Innovations in Biometric Technology    

Advancements such as AI-driven biometrics and biometric wearables are revolutionizing how patient identities are verified and managed within healthcare settings. Biometric wearables, capable of continuous monitoring and data collection, offer real-time insights into patient health metrics, enabling proactive healthcare interventions and personalized treatment plans. For instance, Caregility introduced enhancements to its telehealth platform in June 2020, incorporating single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication (MFA) capabilities. These updates enable secure access for end users using unified credentials, providing streamlined entry to authorized applications, websites, and data sources. These technological innovations not only improve the efficiency of healthcare delivery but also contribute to better patient outcomes. Ongoing research and development in biometric technology are creating opportunities for transformative innovations tailored for specific healthcare applications.

Restraints/Challenges

• High Implementation Costs of Biometric Technology      

High implementation costs remain a significant barrier to the adoption of biometric systems in healthcare, particularly impacting smaller providers with limited budgets. The initial setup expenses for acquiring biometric hardware and software, along with the costs of deployment and staff training, can strain financial resources. Moreover, ongoing maintenance expenses, including software updates, technical support, and system upgrades, add to the total cost of ownership. Despite the long-term benefits of enhanced security and operational efficiency, these upfront costs may deter some healthcare organizations from investing in biometric solutions, especially when competing priorities for healthcare spending are considered.      

• Integration with Healthcare IT Infrastructure    

The integration of biometric systems with existing healthcare IT infrastructure poses significant challenges due to its complexity and potential interoperability issues. Healthcare facilities often operate multiple systems and platforms, each with its own data formats, protocols, and security requirements. Integrating biometric technologies such as fingerprint or facial recognition into these heterogeneous environments requires meticulous planning, customization, and testing to ensure seamless operation and data integrity. Compatibility with legacy systems further complicates integration efforts, as older technology may not support modern biometric standards or require additional software adaptations. These complexities can delay implementation timelines and increase project costs, hindering the adoption of biometric solutions.
