Outpatient Home Therapy Market Report 2025

The outpatient home therapy market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $53.59 billion in 2024 to $57.11 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the increasing demand for personalized care, greater use of portable medical devices, growing awareness of the benefits of physical therapy, rising demand for cost-effective treatment options, and enhanced support from healthcare insurance providers.

The outpatient home therapy market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $72.97 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The growth expected in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing integration of AI and remote monitoring tools, rising investments in home healthcare infrastructure, a growing shift toward value-based healthcare models, greater availability of skilled home therapists, and increased adoption of telehealth. Key trends during this period include advancements in wearable rehabilitation devices, development of hybrid care models, innovations in remote patient monitoring solutions, progress in virtual reality-based therapy, and the creation of mobile therapy applications.

The growth of the outpatient home therapy market is expected to be driven by the expansion of telemedicine services. Telemedicine involves delivering healthcare remotely through digital communication tools, allowing patients to consult with medical professionals without in-person visits. This expansion is fueled by the increasing demand for accessible healthcare, especially for individuals in remote or underserved areas who benefit from timely medical consultations without the need to travel. Telemedicine plays a vital role in outpatient home therapy by enabling continuous monitoring and professional support, helping patients adhere to their treatment plans and receive timely assistance from home. For example, in September 2022, the International Trade Administration, a US government agency, reported that Japan’s telemedicine market is projected to reach around $404.5 million by 2025. Thus, the expansion of telemedicine services is contributing to the growth of the outpatient home therapy market.

Leading companies in the outpatient home therapy market are focusing on developing innovative solutions such as home rehabilitation programs to improve patient recovery and outcomes through personalized care delivered at home. Home rehabilitation programs are structured therapy and recovery plans that patients follow at home, often after surgery, injury, or conditions like stroke, joint replacement, or chronic illness. For instance, in October 2024, South Shore VNA (Visiting Nurse Association), a US-based non-profit healthcare organization, introduced a home-based outpatient rehabilitation program that provides high-quality rehabilitation services directly to patients’ homes. This program includes physical, occupational, and speech therapy for individuals recovering from surgery, injury, or managing chronic conditions. The initiative aims to enhance accessibility, convenience, and the overall recovery experience, helping patients achieve better outcomes without frequent visits to outpatient clinics.

In February 2023, UnitedHealth Group, a US healthcare company, acquired LHC Group for $5.4 billion.

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.
