Healthcare systems are experiencing growth in consumer engagement worldwide. In developing countries, the systems are becoming technologically friendly. These are experiencing an internationalization of care as established brands—such as the US-based Cleveland Clinic—expanded their businesses in the UAE, and start-ups—such as England-based Babylon, a primary care diagnostic app powered by machine learning and AI—entered into China and Rwanda markets. Moreover, with increasing investments in the Asia Pacific healthcare sector, IT start-ups offer lucrative opportunities for its growth. For instance, in December 2020, DXY (a Chinese healthcare portal company) raised US$ 500 million in a Series E round led by Trustbridge Partners. Alodokter, an Indonesian health tech platform, raised US$ 33 million Series C funding. The growing healthcare IT industry in Asia Pacific is anticipated to provide lucrative opportunities for players to expand their capabilities across the region. Also, COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the use of digital health technologies globally. The pandemic prioritized remote monitoring solutions. Governments in the area are promoting the use of telemedicine. For instance, in March 2020, the Indian government issued the Telemedicine Practice Guidelines to enable registered medical practitioners to provide healthcare services using telecommunication and digital technologies. Such initiatives would offer lucrative opportunities for the growth of the patient portal market in the coming years.
