The telehealth Services Market of India is one of the most impactful digital health innovations over the past decade. Remote patient monitoring is a key parameter of telehealth services, which provides healthcare professionals the advantage of monitoring patients from a distance. In 2020, The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), NITI Aayog, and the Board of Governors (BoG) Medical Council of India (MCI) released the initial formal guidelines to regulate practices across the nation. This regulation democratized healthcare delivery, especially telemedicine, in the country.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a tipping point for India's Telehealth market, with multifold growth in the volume of Telehealth requests received by leading market participants. Growing smartphone and internet penetration in rural areas, greater public awareness about the availability of virtual visits as an alternative to physical consultations, and access to affordable home monitoring devices are key aspects driving the adoption of Telehealth products and services in the country. With 62% of India's total disease burden attributed to chronic diseases, RPM and mHealth segments have immense potential to act as alternative healthcare delivery channels in the country.

The adoption of Telehealth among the aged population is expected to increase significantly over the next decade in developed countries. Therefore, the rapid increase in the aged population and the rising adoption of Telehealth among this segment of the population is estimated to propel the growth of the Telehealth market over the forecast period. The rise in the demand for remote patient monitoring among healthcare professionals due to improved patient outcomes and compliance rates is expected to propel the growth of the India Telehealth Services Market over the forecast period. The common barriers to the adoption of Telehealth in India include lack of awareness particularly in Tier-3 cities, towns and rural India, unavailability of proper healthcare IT infrastructure, among others.
