Laboratory Information System/LIS Market - Global Forecasts to 2019
M2 - Mon Jan 05, 9:14AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/99jvn8/laboratory) has announced the addition of the "Laboratory Information System/LIS Market by Type, Delivery Mode, End User Labs & by Component - Global Forecast to 2019" report to their offering. The global LIS market is expected to reach $1.8 billion by 2019 from $1.1 billion in 2014, growing at a CAGR of 9% from 2014 to 2019 Major factors contributing to growth of the LIS market include rising awareness of LIS solutions made by various symposiums and conferences and the rising need to integrate healthcare systems. Furthermore, government support in the form of funding is another major factor providing impetus for growth of this market. For instance, in 2009, ARRA allocated $19 billion to hospitals and clinics to support adoption of electronic information systems such as electronic health records (EHRs), laboratory information systems (LIS), and clinical decision support systems (CDSS) to create a patient-centric care approach. In this regard, a physician can get incentives of $44,000 from Medicare (over 5 years) and $63,750 through Medicaid (over 6 years) by demonstrating significant use of such healthcare IT systems. Relatively untapped markets of the Asian region with an advent of growing medical tourism have increased demand for diagnostic tests and have opened an array of opportunities for the LIS market. However, high costs of LIS solutions, high cost of maintenance and services, and dearth of trained HCIT professionals are some of the concerning factors that are expected to hinder the growth of this market.
