Clinical surveillance, interoperable EHRs, and population health applications offer strong growth opportunities, finds Frost & Sullivan's Transformational Health team
SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Technical and regulatory disruptions are transforming the clinical decision support systems (CDSS) market in the United States (U.S.). The advent of meaningful use and changing documentation requirements to achieve reimbursement are creating a complex and connected CDS infrastructure that includes digital workflow, electronic health records (EHRs) and point-of-care solutions. EHRs are expected to be the hub for CDSS as growing volumes of patient data from a variety of sources will encourage workflow improvements to enable patient surveillance at the point-of-care. These systems will further evolve to include the reservoir of patient data needed to develop predictive analytics and enhance the performance of population health systems.
"The introduction of value-based reimbursements and quality performance measures will increase the value of evidence-based data to document a clinical rationale and support medical decision making," said Digital Health Principal Analyst Victor Camlek. "Essentially, the CDSS market will comprise a wide array of companies, ranging from established clinical content providers to vendors of medical devices, analytical services, and workflow tools. This emerging ecosystem will encourage alliances and merger/acquisition activity, and underscore the necessity for a dedicated CDSS infrastructure vital to improving patient outcomes."
