Request Covid - 19 Impact

Oncology information systems are used to maintain patient records, to predict treatment results, plan treatment for cancer patients accordingly, and exchange cancer patient information across healthcare organizations, which improves safety and efficiency of cancer treatment. In addition, oncology information systems help physicians and surgeons to choose a suitable therapy which in turn helps to improve survival rate of cancer patients.

Global Oncology Information Systems Market Dynamics:

Oncology information systems are better alternatives to conventional techniques for treatment planning and record keeping in medical facilities. Advantages of oncology information systems such as planned treatment, future-proofing, and remote access are features expected to result in rising demand for these systems in the near future.

Increasing incidence of cancer globally is other factor driving growth of global oncology information systems market over the forecast period. According to WHO, in terms of mortality, there is less regional variability than for incidence, with mortality rates being 15% higher in more developed than in less developed regions in men, and 8% higher in women in 2013. According to World Health Organization (WHO), cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, and was responsible for 8.8 Mn deaths in 2015. Around one in six deaths is due to cancer globally.

Implementation of electronic medical records and e-prescribing is another factor driving growth of the global oncology information systems market over the forecast period. Increasing government initiatives in the developing countries such as Brazil, China, India, and South Africa to improve the process of diagnosing diseases and treatment outcomes is further expected to support growth of the global market over the forecast period.

Recently launched oncology information systems can improve operation efficiency by facilitating flow of patients as it eliminates redundant patient records, promotes information sharing, and provide quicker access to laboratory test results and radiology films these factors are creating positive impact on growth of the global oncology information systems market over the forecast period.

However, scarcity of trained or experienced healthcare IT professionals who can operate and use oncology information systems efficiently, especially in developing economies, is expected to hamper growth of the global market over the forecast period. In addition, high cost associated with implementation, maintenance, and services of oncology information systems is other factor expected to limit the growth of the global market in next 10 years.
