Ambulatory Services Market is expected to reach USD 3,428.5 billion by 2022

Global ambulatory services market is expected to reach USD 3,428.5 billion by 2022, according to a new report by Grand View Research Inc. The market is driven by increasing aging population, ease-in-access and flexible timings, government initiatives to integrate acute and primary healthcare, and growing treatment costs.

Aging population and increasing life expectancy have transformed the healthcare needs to provide services for existing co-morbidities, disabilities, and frailties. For providing accessible services to patients, there is an increasing demand for outpatient services, which help in cutting down on the long wait times in hospitals. 

The healthcare budgetary pressure on the government is also expected to decrease by providing efficient outpatient/ambulatory services. For instance, January 2015 report released by Alberta (province in Western Canada) stated that increasing seniors in the population, which accounted to 16% used over 41% of the direct healthcare costs.

Further key findings from the study suggest:

• Primary care offices dominated the market in 2014 owing to increasing demand for private care facilities by patients. In addition, funding agencies such as the NHS along with Primary Healthcare Properties (PHP) invested USD 1.4 billion for the transformation of primary care for General Practitioner (GP) buildings.
• Specialty surgery is expected to witness rapid rise in demand due to the technological advancements enabling ophthalmic, orthopedic, and other surgeries to take place in the Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs).

The report listed that the top five cosmetic minimally-invasive procedures were chemical peels, IPL treatments, laser skin resurfacing, laser hair removal, Botox, Dysport, and soft tissue fillers
