Telecare Market Report 2025

The telecare market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $5.93 billion in 2024 to $6.53 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.1%. The growth during the historical period can be attributed to the expanding elderly population, a growing prevalence of chronic diseases, restricted healthcare access in rural regions, government-initiated pilot projects for remote care, and the initial uptake of personal emergency response systems.

The telecare market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.51 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to increasing demand for aging-in-place solutions, the ongoing digital transformation of healthcare, the broadening of reimbursement frameworks, greater integration of telecare with primary healthcare services, and a growing need for real-time health monitoring. Key trends expected during this period include progress in remote monitoring technologies, ongoing innovation in wearable telecare devices, advancements in fall detection research and development, integration with smart home systems, and the rise of cloud-based telecare platforms.

The increasing use of remote healthcare services is expected to drive the growth of the telecare market. Remote healthcare services involve delivering medical care through telecommunication technologies, allowing patients to receive treatment without visiting healthcare facilities in person. This growth is largely fueled by the expanding geriatric population, as many elderly individuals prefer to age in place, leading to higher demand for continuous remote monitoring and support. Telecare facilitates remote healthcare by providing real-time monitoring, emergency response, and communication through connected devices, ensuring care can be delivered without physical contact. For example, in November 2023, USAFacts, a US-based nonprofit civic initiative, reported that telehealth visits among Medicare recipients increased dramatically from about 5 million in April 2021 to over 53 million in August 2022. Consequently, the rising adoption of remote healthcare services is boosting the telecare market.

Key players in the telecare market are emphasizing innovation through strategic partnerships to improve remote monitoring capabilities and broaden their service offerings, especially for elderly and chronic care needs. Strategic collaborations involve organizations pooling resources and expertise to develop advanced solutions, improve service delivery, and achieve shared objectives more effectively. For example, in December 2024, Skyresponse AB, a technology company from Sweden, partnered with OneCo Technologies AS, a Norway-based firm specializing in health technology, to deliver fully digital, cloud-based telecare solutions. These solutions aim to support independent living, care homes, institutions, and hospitals in both private and public sectors. The partnership merges Skyresponse’s alarm management platform with OneCo’s knowledge in electronics, automation, and telecommunications to offer flexible, affordable, and user-friendly telecare services. Their initial focus is a remote night check-in system combining KeplerVision with the Skyresponse Responder App, which is being implemented by Norway’s largest private care home operator.

In September 2022, SOC Telemed Inc., a US-based telemedicine technology company, acquired Forefront Telecare Inc. for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition allows SOC Telemed to enhance its behavioral health services by integrating Forefront’s virtual care network and clinical expertise. The expansion aims to improve access to specialty care for vulnerable populations in hospitals, long-term care facilities, and home health settings across the United States. Forefront Telecare Inc. is a US company specializing in telehealth technologies focused on delivering behavioral health services remotely.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The sudden escalation of U.S. tariffs and the consequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are severely impacting the healthcare sector, particularly in the supply of critical medical devices, diagnostic equipment, and pharmaceuticals. Hospitals and healthcare providers are facing higher costs for imported surgical instruments, imaging equipment, and consumables such as syringes and catheters, many of which have limited domestic alternatives. These increased costs are straining healthcare budgets, leading some providers to delay equipment upgrades or pass on expenses to patients. Additionally, tariffs on raw materials and components are disrupting the production of essential drugs and devices, causing supply chain bottlenecks. In response, the industry is diversifying sourcing strategies, boosting local manufacturing where possible, and advocating for tariff exemptions on life-saving medical products.
