In 2026, the size of the healthcare transportation services market is expected to expand substantially
Transportation Services Market: Overview
Transportation services provide timely and safe transportation of patients, medical equipment, test specimens, and medicines between locations; thereby improving the efficiency of the healthcare system.
A healthcare system generally consists of different components contributing to research, testing, diagnosis, and treatment. The transportation system is integral to the entire healthcare industry. The providers of transport services are required to comply with certain regulations established by healthcare organizations, such as having sufficient clinical and field experience to deal with patients of varying conditions and acuities. To effectively transport patients, the transport team must work closely with system members who deal with clinical care and evaluate risks and benefits. Hospital, medical facilities, nursing homes, and airport shuttles can all benefit from healthcare transportation services.
The report analyzes the key growth dynamics, various factors boosting prominent segments, and recent trends in the global healthcare transportation services market. Within the study, we examine the impact of the various technological advancements and emerging deploying models and services that are expected to influence market trends between 2018 and 2026.
There have been many patents filed in the medical transportation services market over the last few years. Patents abound in the field, which shows a rapid adoption of technology. It remains a challenge for this market, however, to provide quality emergency services to the mushrooming geriatric population in developed regions. In addition, the limited market access of key players and the lack of investment from local players could hamper market growth.
As a matter of fact, ambulances and vehicles used to transport patients and other medical goods require regular maintenance and quality checks by the transport regulatory bodies of each region. Performing routine checkups on transport vehicles requires time. For such services to continue, there must be additional vehicles or substitutes. A high maintenance cost is also incurred on the vehicles and the air ambulance. As a result, these factors are likely to restrict the market's growth over the forecast period.
The global healthcare transportation services market is expected to demonstrate some notable trends in the near future. In an innovation around the world, drones are being developed to transport automated external defibrillators to cardiac arrest scenes faster than ambulances. In the event that there is no medical professional present at the site when an AED is delivered by drone, even a non-medical professional can perform the process of using it. These drones are capable of traveling to places that are difficult for humans to access, such as tribal and reserved areas. Especially these companies could contribute significantly to the growth of healthcare transportation services.
According to research, the global healthcare transportation services market has been segmented into five regions: North America, South America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and the Middle East and Africa. In Asia Pacific, government spending on healthcare facilities is expected to increase at the fastest rate, thereby boosting the market. This is a major factor driving the demand for advanced healthcare transportation in the region.
Market players will continue to maintain a competitive edge in the global healthcare transportation services market by making investments in mergers and acquisitions and expanding product portfolios. As an example, American Medical Response and Lyft partnered to provide non-emergency medical transportation for patients in March 2017. With mission-critical pharmaceutical shipments in mind, ATS Healthcare developed coast-to-coast temperature management services in October 2016.
Xpress Non-Emergency Medical Transportation, Logisticare, American Medical Response, ATS Healthcare Solutions, and DHL Healthcare are among the top players in the global healthcare services market.
The demand for microscopy devices for life science has increased greatly over the last decade. Micro advances in medical sciences have played a prominent role in the growth of the global market for life science microscopy devices.
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Drugs Market The chronic kidney disease (CKD) drugs market treads along a profitable path.Ocean Transportation A healthy kidney is essential for the human body. Besides being an important body organ, the kidneys also play a significant role in our larger anatomy.
A significant increase in transdermal scopolamine market is attributed to the advantages provided by the drug. Skin patches prevent nausea and vomiting caused by motion sickness by balancing the body's levels of norepinephrine and acetylcholine (hormones).
