Infection Surveillance Solutions Market Analysis by Mordor Intelligence

The infection surveillance solutions market size stands at USD 0.91 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 1.69 billion by 2030, delivering a 13.2% CAGR as healthcare providers institutionalize digital infection-control workflows learned during the pandemic. Expansion is propelled by new U.S. and EU rules obligating electronic submission of healthcare-associated infection (HAI) data, tighter value-based reimbursement, and rapid uptake of AI-based early-warning algorithms that cut sepsis detection times. Hospitals accelerate spending to avoid CMS penalties tied to respiratory illness reporting, while smaller facilities gravitate toward cloud subscriptions that trim capital budgets despite lingering cybersecurity fears following the 2024 Change Healthcare breach. Vendors differentiate on interoperability with EHRs, HL7-FHIR readiness, and embedded predictive analytics, and most are layering managed services on top of core software to relieve staffing constraints. Overall, the infection surveillance solutions market benefits from a convergence of regulation, economics, and technology that turns digital surveillance from a “nice-to-have” into mandatory clinical infrastructure.

Segment Analysis

By Type: Surgical-Site Infections Retain the Lead

Surgical-site infections contributed USD 0.47 billion in 2024, representing the largest slice of the infection surveillance solutions market. CMS penalty structures and public reporting keep surgical metrics in executive dashboards, sustaining investment in perioperative surveillance modules. AI-augmented image and vital-sign analyzers now flag wound deterioration within hours, enhancing compliance and trimming readmission risks. In contrast, blood-stream infections generated a smaller base but clock the highest 13.8% CAGR thanks to continuous physiological data streams that feed machine-learning sepsis predictors. The infection surveillance solutions market size for blood-stream monitoring is projected to hit USD 0.41 billion by 2030 as validation studies prove 26% mortality reduction. Other categories such as catheter-associated UTIs and ventilator-associated pneumonia benefit from device usage audits and bedside dashboards that push adherence reminders in real time.

Clinical priority differences steer vendor road maps. Surgical-site modules emphasize operating-room scheduling links and antimicrobial prophylaxis timers, while blood-stream modules pivot around real-time lab cultures and antibiotic stewardship tools. Emerging whole-genome sequencing tie-ins will likely blur boundaries, enabling unified dashboards that overlay pathogen lineage on infection type. Still, hospitals are expected to license separate analytic bundles through 2030, ensuring the infection surveillance solutions market continues to generate type-specific revenue streams.

By Offering: Software Dominance with Services Upshift

Software platforms delivered 67.8% of overall revenue in 2024 and continue to anchor most RFPs due to health systems’ preference for integrated EHR plug-ins. Market leaders invest in low-code configurations so infection-control teams can tweak alert thresholds without programmer support. Yet services revenue rises at a faster 14.7% clip as facilities outsource rule tuning, report generation, and AI model retraining. Managed-service providers package 24/7 monitoring, regulatory updates, and analytics talent, appealing to resource-strained safety-net hospitals. As a result, the infection surveillance solutions market size attributable to services may near USD 0.62 billion by 2030, blurring the classic product-versus-services distinction.

Vendor strategies increasingly bundle outcome-based contracts in which monthly fees flex with performance on HAI benchmarks. That shift moves risk off hospital balance sheets while guaranteeing recurring revenue for suppliers. Expect further migration toward platform-plus-service subscriptions, solidifying long-tail value capture across the infection surveillance solutions market.

By Deployment Model: Cloud Gains Despite On-Premise Majority

On-premise installations still accounted for three-quarters of 2024 revenue as large integrated delivery networks cling to existing data centers and custom interfaces. However, cloud subscriptions grow 15.0% annually, driven by small-to-mid provider adoption and hybrid expansions among enterprise systems seeking disaster-recovery resilience. Providers report 40–60% lower up-front costs and quicker go-lives—often under 90 days—when using multitenant SaaS models. The infection surveillance solutions market share for cloud is forecast to rise beyond 40% by 2030 as regulatory clarity around encrypted processing environments matures.

Cybersecurity remains the sticking point. Vendors now include end-to-end managed security layers, audit trails, and zero-trust segmentation as standard SLAs. These technical assurances, supported by pending federal grants, erode resistance and are expected to tilt procurement decisively toward cloud in the latter half of the forecast window.

By End User: Hospitals Anchor Demand, Long-Term Care Accelerates

Hospitals produced 56.4% of 2024 sales, reflecting tight alignment between inpatient quality penalties and surveillance spend. Tertiary systems deploy enterprise dashboards that correlate hand-hygiene compliance with HAI trends, feeding board-level scorecards. Long-term care facilities, however, register the fastest 14.3% CAGR as CMS extends Enhanced Barrier Precautions and respiratory-pathogen reporting into nursing homes. The infection surveillance solutions market size for long-term care is projected to rise from USD 0.11 billion in 2025 to USD 0.22 billion by 2030.

Ambulatory surgery centers and home-health operators represent emerging niches as procedures migrate outside hospitals. Vendors reacting quickly with lightweight, mobile-first interfaces will capture incremental share given limited IT support in these decentralized settings.

Geography Analysis

North America generated 38.1% of 2024 revenue, underpinned by mandatory NHSN reporting and CMS reimbursement levers that compel every acute-care facility to maintain certified electronic surveillance. Federal rules effective November 2024 now require hospitals to upload weekly COVID-19, influenza, and RSV counts, cementing demand for automated platforms[3]Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, “Hospital Conditions of Participation for Acute Respiratory Illness Reporting,” cms.gov. High-profile AI pilots across leading U.S. IDNs stimulate peer adoption and validate ROI calculations for budget committees.

Asia-Pacific records the highest 13.5% CAGR through 2030 as Japan, China, and South Korea leapfrog legacy architectures with cloud-native deployments. Japan’s super-aged demographics amplify the value proposition for labor-saving surveillance, while China’s top-down digitization funds EHR nodes even in tier-2 cities. Private equity flows into telehealth and hospital-at-home models further expand the infection surveillance solutions market because remote-care workflows still require infection-risk oversight.

Europe advances steadily on the back of the European Health Data Space. EHDS mandates interoperable EHRs and cross-border infection reporting by 2029, a deadline accelerating procurement cycles. Strict GDPR rules elevate demand for platforms with embedded anonymization and secure-processing zones, and wastewater-plus-genomic pilots across 10 EU nations showcase the region’s integrated, multi-modal approach to pathogen monitoring.

Competitive Landscape

The market remains moderately fragmented: top EHR players, diagnostics giants, and niche analytics specialists coexist. Epic leverages its EHR footprint to embed native infection dashboards, gaining integration speed over stand-alone rivals. BD pushes end-to-end pathways by pairing rapid diagnostics with HealthSight analytics, reinforced by recent FDA clearances and a USD 2.5 billion domestic manufacturing program. Wolters Kluwer capitalizes on its clinical knowledge assets, integrating evidence-based content via its 2025 AI Labs initiative to improve model explainability.

Disrupters such as Boston University’s open-source BEACON platform showcase large-language-model surveillance, attracting global health grants that offset commercial scale disadvantages. Meanwhile, Inovalon’s VigiLanz earns #1 KLAS rankings for pharmacy surveillance, underscoring the weight buyers place on peer-validated usability. Mergers and acquisitions activity centers on acquiring AI teams and cloud orchestration tools, suggesting eventual consolidation but no near-term shakeout given diverse buyer preferences and regional compliance idiosyncrasies.
