MARKET OUTLOOK

Triton’s research report insinuates the Middle East and Africa digital transformation in healthcare market to surge at a CAGR of 28.16% during the years 2021-2028. Turkey, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Rest of Middle East & Africa shape the market in this region.

The Ministry of Health is taking active measures to offer the vulnerable population medical services via telemedicine, phone, and text messages, across Saudi Arabia. Furthermore, the MoH recently extended its telemedicine regulations with the launch of the eHealth Seha application that offers ease of medical consultation. Additionally, the pandemic resulted in every citizen gaining access to the health application despite not having a data contract with their telecom provider. Besides, the deployment of electronic medical records is among the major components of the country’s healthcare strategy. This primarily supports the expansion of the digital transformation in healthcare market within Saudi Arabia. 

Earlier, the Turkish Ministry of Health and the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society signed a Memorandum of Understanding to expand the use of maturity models across all healthcare providers within the country. Moreover, this MoU has a five-year commitment to employ analytics maturity models across Turkey’s extensive network of healthcare systems. Here, the electronic medical record adoption model measures the adoption level and use of electronic medical record solutions in hospitals. These factors create new lucrative opportunities for Turkey’s digital transformation in healthcare market.
