Global Healthcare Customer Data Platform Market Size

Healthcare Customer Data Platform Market Analysis

The Global Healthcare Customer Data Platform Market size is estimated at USD 0.51 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 1.7 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 27.11% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

COVID-19 had a significant impact on the healthcare customer data platform market as the result of investments, huge growth, and acquisitions while the customer data platform industry reconfigured itself during the COVID pandemic. There was an increase in the demand for customer data platforms as healthcare institutions recognized that unified data is the foundation of digital customer experience. For instance, as per an article published in March 2021 in PubMed, research demonstrated a better understanding of healthcare consumers' behavioral intentions for using digital healthcare platforms during Covid-19. According to the findings of this survey, healthcare consumers, in general, expressed a high desire to use digital healthcare platforms during and after Covid-19. This trend indicated that implementing CDP streamlined the process and reduced costs during COVID-19, and it is expected to continue during the forecast period. In the coming years, the market is expected to witness growth due to advancements in healthcare customer data platforms and a rise in the adoption of digital health technologies.

Other factors propelling the studied market growth are the increasing prevalence of chronic and infectious diseases and technological advancements in the studied market. Additionally, continuous product development, launches, and strategic initiatives by key market players are also expected to contribute to significant market growth. As per a 2022 update by the American Cancer Society, the number of cancer cases diagnosed in 2022 was 1.9 million. The high burden of diseases such as cancer provides access to patients' medical history across healthcare institutions, which eases emergency care delivery, positively driving the market.

The technological innovation in the studied market will help overcome the challenges in managing high-quality healthcare data. For instance, in August 2021, Adobe launched Adobe Experience Cloud for Healthcare. This comprehensive offering is HIPAA-ready and built on Adobe Experience Cloud applications, empowering healthcare companies to improve the quality of care, reduce costs, and accelerate digital care transformation. These advantages offered by cloud customer data platforms will contribute to the market's growth. Additionally, strategic initiatives such as partnerships, expansions, and acquisitions will also lead to significant market growth. For instance, in October 2021, ActionIQ expanded its CDP into the healthcare vertical by completing its compliance audit for Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Type 1 standard. This addition creates a comprehensive customer experience (CX) offering for healthcare payers, providers, life sciences, and pharmacy brands.

In a nutshell, the studied market is expected to witness solid growth over the forecast period. However, high prices, proper maintenance, and improper IT infrastructure in developing countries within the healthcare setup are expected to hinder its growth.
