Market Overview
Demand for Enhanced Connectivity and Data Sharing Supports Adoption of Laboratory Information Systems
The European LIS market is mature, with over 95 per cent penetration. The centralisation and consolidation of hospitals represents a growing trend across most of Europe, including the United Kingdom, France and Scandinavia. Hospital mergers have resulted in the customer base of LIS vendors being downsized. However, most hospitals in Europe are in the replacement phase and, hence, are looking to substitute and reorganise their legacy LIS solutions. The need to replace such systems with reconfigured and user-friendly set-ups is driving market expansion. The reorganisation of LIS solutions is a rising trend in countries such as the United Kingdom and across Scandinavia. Opportunities lie ahead in terms of technological advancements such as the development of laboratory solutions with multidisciplinary functionality and interoperability capability.
“The need to share information between hospitals or departments within a particular healthcare unit is encouraging the re-examination of their LIS policies,” notes the analyst of this research. “Clinicians are particularly interested in the interconnectivity between hospital information systems (HIS), electronic patient records (EPR) and LIS solutions that would facilitate the retrieval of data from electronic records when required.” At the same time, the development of customised LIS solutions offering diagnostic and decision-making features that can aid the detection of future ailments and diseases will be helpful for the physicians. These types of solutions are likely to play a major role in spurring the popularity of preventive medicine.
Broad Product Portfolio Offering Extensive Range of Features to Appeal to Laboratories
There are over 25 participants in the European LIS market. Intense competition among vendors is leading to market concentration. The entry of local vendors offering lower prices and adopting local distribution strategies is reducing the profitability of established vendors.
“End users are interested in LIS solutions that can provide diagnostic information and not just cater to data management,” states the analyst. “They are interested in pathology systems that can offer diagnostic advice, with the information provided to them after analysis. The development of such specialised features in a LIS presents a challenge for vendors.” Parameters such as price and interoperability are emerging as important purchase criteria. New features that can improve workflow and laboratory management are becoming a major consideration. Clients are particularly interested in certain administrative modules such as billing and statistical reporting. Vendors offering a broader portfolio encapsulating a wide range of features required by a laboratory are likely to have a competitive edge in the market.
