Digital Transformation in Healthcare Market Report 2026

The digital transformation in healthcare market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $96.94 billion in 2025 to $115.92 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to paper-based clinical workflows, rising healthcare operational costs, early health it adoption, fragmented care delivery systems, growing patient data volumes.

The digital transformation in healthcare market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $219.68 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to ai-enabled care optimization, government digital health initiatives, value-based care models, cloud infrastructure expansion, cybersecurity investments. Major trends in the forecast period include accelerated adoption of electronic health records, expansion of telemedicine and virtual care services, increasing use of data-driven clinical decision support, growing integration of digital patient engagement tools, rising demand for interoperable healthcare systems.

The growing adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) is expected to drive the expansion of digital transformation in the healthcare market going forward. Electronic health records are digital versions of patients’ paper charts that provide real-time, patient-centered information and can be accessed securely by authorized users. The uptake of EHRs is increasing due to improvements in patient care, supportive regulations and incentives, enhanced data sharing, greater patient engagement, advanced data analytics, and the need for effective population health management. Digital transformation in healthcare strengthens EHR systems by integrating advanced technologies and improving interoperability, enabling seamless data exchange and coordinated care among healthcare providers. For instance, in October 2023, according to a report published by Oxford Academic, a UK-based research platform for academic journals and books, basic EHR adoption rose from 6.6% to 81.2%, while comprehensive EHR system adoption increased from 3.6% to 63.2%. Large hospitals reported a 7% higher comprehensive EHR adoption rate compared to medium-sized hospitals and more than 34% higher than small hospitals. Therefore, the increasing adoption of electronic health records is driving the growth of digital transformation in the healthcare market.
