DUBLIN, May 7, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Telemedicine Market Outlook 2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Telemedicine makes use of electronic technologies, such as email, smartphones, and video conferencing, for exchanging the medical information of the patient. This technology has helped healthcare providers to extend their services to remote areas effectively. Furthermore, this technology is also extensively being used for the elderly population as well as for people who are unable to reach healthcare providers due to the inability to walk or chronic disease. Consultations through video calling, transferring medical images, and vital signs monitoring amongst others are the major applications of telemedicine.

According to a new research report, the market for telemedicine was valued at US$ 29.6 Billion in 2017 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of approximately 19% during 2017-2022. The growth of the market is likely to be driven by increasing adoption of telemedicine, rising incidences of chronic diseases, a growing geriatric population, government initiatives and a shortage of physicians.

The report provides insights into various factors that are affecting the growth of the markets. Furthermore, the report also includes the major trends and opportunities that will propel the industry's growth.

Based on end-users, the report broadly categorizes the telemedicine market into Telehospitals/Teleclinics and Telehome. Telehospitals/Teleclinics emerged as the major revenue earners of the industry, holding the largest share. The telehospitals market is further sub-divided into teleradiology, telecardiology, telepsychiatry, and teledermatology amongst others, based on Specialty. Teleradiology accounted for the largest share of the telehospital market by Specialty. This large share of the market is attributed to the wide usage of this technology for transferring patient's medical reports.

Based on component, the telemedicine market is further categorized into services, hardware, software, and telecom and networking. The telemedicine service market accounted for the largest share in the total telemedicine market in 2017.

The report also offers a geographic analysis of the global telemedicine market by segmenting into four major geographic regions - North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World.
