Adoption of Healthcare API Solutions gets a Boost as Healthcare Providers Switch to EHR

The leading players in the global healthcare API market, namely Mulesoft Inc., Apple Inc., Microsoft Corporation, GE Healthcare, Epic Systems Corporation, and Allscripts Healthcare Solutions Inc. held a cumulative share of approximately 67% in the global healthcare API market revenue in 2015. Transparency Market Research has observed that these players have been focused on creating value with acquisitions. Strengthening their presence in the healthcare API market and at the same time, offering innovative solutions to cater to the needs of their customers has been the key growth strategy for most companies.

“Large players have also been partnering with various healthcare facilities and healthcare technology providers to reach out to more customers,” the lead author of the study finds. For instance, in June 2014, Apple Inc. made its first big move in mobile health by partnering with market-leading hospital software firm Epic Systems and renowned healthcare provider Mayo Clinic to develop HealthKit, a health app platform.


Concerns over Data Privacy and Security Threaten Global Growth

An increase in the initiatives by electronic health record (EHR) vendors and healthcare IT startups has resulted in an immense growth in healthcare IT solutions, including application programming interfaces. The adoption of API-integrated EHR has risen rapidly in the recent past thanks to the ease of data accessibility and this, in turn, has boosted the market for healthcare API.

Leading vendors such as GE Healthcare, Mulesoft, Practise Fusion, and Practo Technologies have been focused on making sure their solutions are compatible with the latest healthcare apps. This is also projected to benefit the healthcare API market.
“Considering that the need for frequent upgrades in the overall healthcare API market will arise in the near future, the impact of this driver will remain moderate in the coming years,” the analyst predicts.

However, concerns regarding privacy breaches and the loss as well as manipulation of important patient information pose a key challenge for the growth of the healthcare API market. “Open-source APIs are increasingly vulnerable to cyber-attacks and considering that the usage of APIs cannot be restrained, the privacy and security of patients becomes a major issue,” the author of the study states. Developers have, therefore, been focused on eliminating the risk of data theft by developing more secure platforms.
