ePrescribing Market - Increased Adoption of Integrated Telehealth Solutions due to COVID19
Overview of This Study:
The study involved four major activities in estimating the size of the global ePrescribing market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the utilization of different solutions and their regional utilization trends. Industry experts further validated the data obtained through secondary research through primary research.
Furthermore, the market size estimates and forecast provided in this study are derived through a mix of the bottom-up approach (country-level adoption of various EHR solutions and utilization of ePrescribing funcitonality) and top-down approach (assessment of utilization/adoption/penetration trends, by type of product& service, delivery mode, end user, and region). After that, market breakdown and data triangulation methods were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.

Global Growth Driving Factors:
Factors such as the increasing adoption of EHR solutions, government initiatives and incentive programs, rising focus on reducing the abuse of controlled substances, increasing focus on reducing medical errors, and the need to curtail the escalating healthcare costs are driving the growth of the e-prescribing market. Additionally, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the use of telemedicine modules and telehealth consultations. This is further driving the adoption of e-prescribing solutions.
Challenges: Lack of technology awareness among end users
E-prescribing solutions operate at maximum efficiency only when integrated with EHRs and a complementary suite of other HCIT solutions. However, most physicians and end-users lack the knowledge and technological expertise to understand how to make full use of e-prescribing. For instance, it may be difficult for end-users to select the most effective combination of hardware and software components while implementing any e-prescribing solution.
This aspect carries weight, as using complementary components can help reduce overall costs incurred, while increasing workflow efficiency. However, limited access to expert opinion and trained IT professionals can pose challenges for end-users in selecting the appropriate e-prescribing solution for their practice. This has a direct impact on the end user’s decision to adopt an eprescribing solution in the first place.
Opportunities: Increased adoption of integrated telehealth solutions due to COVID-19
Even before the onset of the global pandemic, players in the EHR market had started integrating the telehealth feature with their existing solutions, due to advantages offered by telehealth consultations such as increased patient engagement in remote monitoring and reduction in overhead costs. However, the adoption of this feature increased significantly during the COVID-19 crisis.
COVID-19 Impact on ePrescribing Market
The COVID-19 pandemic will not directly impact the e-prescribing market; however, its impact on the healthcare IT and the EMR markets will drive the demand for e-prescribing solutions during and after the global pandemic. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the number of teleconsultations has increased. The integration of EHR, telemedicine, and e-prescribing functionalities aid prescribers in creating an interconnected network that ensures the use of HCIT to diagnose and prescribe medicines for patients. In addition, recommendations by the CDC to use telemedicine services and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) regulations for the electronic prescription of controlled substances have increased the number of electronic prescription transactions.
Strategies adopted by EHR and EMR vendors during COVID-19:
# Cerner Corporation (US) integrated its EHR platform with telehealth capabilities, which would help improve patient access to healthcare from home.
# eClinicalWorks (US) integrated its EHR solution with TeleVisits to help with virtual patient care. TeleVisits is a secure platform that uses existing equipment and webcams to diagnose patients remotely.
# Allscripts (US) implemented telehealth solutions through its EHR patient engagement platform, which would enable its clients to access virtual care services. In March 2020, Allscripts had provided telehealth services to over 100 customers.
