Increasing Adoption of 5G and 4G Networks Ensures Continuous Healthcare Services

mHealth technology adoption to a certain extent hinges on telecom advancements, notably the rise of high-speed connectivity like 3G, 4G, and broadband. With 5.2 billion subscribers in 2018, expected to reach 6.5 billion in 2021, 5G's integration in healthcare is driven by improved data transport for medical imagery, enhancing care quality and accessibility. 5G's low latency and high capacity enable widespread remote monitoring, augmented by AR and VR for innovative treatments. In North America, the extensive 5G/4G network penetration supports telemedicine via video calls and rapid data transfer, offering a superior customer experience compared to 4G. The evolution of Wi-Fi and connectivity technologies in the healthcare industry paves the way for increased penetration of connected medical devices, fostering growth opportunities in mHealth.

Smartphone, Tablets & Other Mobile Platforms Proliferation Fuels mHealth Market Growth Worldwide

The expansion of the mHealth market is being driven significantly by the increasing global penetration of smartphones, tablets, and other mobile platforms. A notable trend is the ownership of multiple smartphones, cell phones, or tablets by individuals. As per the GSMA’s annual State of Mobile Internet Connectivity Report 2023, over half (54%) of the global population (~4.3 billion people) now owns a smartphone. Notably, China and India are identified as regions with the highest concentration of mobile devices. The proliferation of smartphones is expected to empower the population by providing access to various healthcare services through wireless multimedia, thereby promoting the widespread adoption of mHealth services.
