Patient Intake Software Market size is Expected to grow at higher CAGR 14.2% Over the Forecast Period.
The patient intake software is used by hospitals, clinics, and the patients to deliver quick and efficient services to the patients by reducing their waiting time. It is a part of the EHR software that maintains the patient records for further utility. It aims to reduce the written errors caused due to the inability to decipher the patient’s history. Additionally, its easy online integration enables faster processing of the insurance policies, thus benefitting the patients.

Technological advancements in the healthcare sector have led to the rapid adoption of diversified software that has eased the administrative work and increased the efficiency of the hospitals. An article named ‘Hospitals’ Use of Electronic Health Records Data, 2015-2017’ published by The Office of the National Coordinator for Health and Information Technology, states that as of 2017, more than 94 percent of the hospitals of United States use the Electronic Health Record (EHR) data for the regular hospital administrative and clinical processes thus improving the diagnostics due to easy access of the patient's data. Additionally, as per the India Brand Equity Foundation - Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Government of India, in August 2019, Microsoft India joined forces with Apollo Hospitals Group to set up a National Clinical Coordination Committee for AI-powered cardiovascular disease risk score API. Such agreements with the tech-giants have flourished the healthcare IT market and paved the way for greater incorporation of the software applications in the hospitals to keep up with the technology, thus accelerating the market growth.
The discrepancy in the information provided by the patients about their medical records can prove to be precarious. The aim of the software to keep the data such as medical records, insurance availability, designated doctors, and the expected treatment ready before the visit of the patient to efficiently manage, and reduce the waiting time of the patient can go in vain due to disparity in the data. As per an article posted by Kaiser Family Foundation named ‘Death By 1,000 Clicks: Where Electronic Health Records Went Wrong’, there was a mistake in the EHR in one out of five people, and more than half of the patients surveyed have incorrect medical histories. It also stated there was a significant rise seen in the safety-related incidents that were linked to the EHR in the past decade. The rising mishaps due to decreased diligence in the medical health records have ingrained uncertainty, thereby restraining the market growth.
