Adoption of Electronic Health Records
The consistent adoption of Electronic Health Records (EHR) across hospitals and healthcare facilities is serving as a substantial driving factor for the Healthcare Predictive Analytics Market. EHRs provide a substantial data resource that healthcare institutions and organizations can draw from to improve their predictive analytics capabilities. Adherence to the Meaningful Use Program outlined by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in the United States, which incentivizes healthcare organizations to use EHRs, has resulted in a large pool of digital health data. Healthcare organizations in turn are increasingly relying on predictive analytics to reduce hospital readmissions, manage population health, and improve preventative care, all of which hinge upon insights drawn from EHRs.
