  • The front-end services segment dominated the market in 2022. However, the middle-end services segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to the growing demand for RCM services offering EHR software.

  • North America dominated the market in 2022. The market is expected to grow due to changing healthcare system and introduction of ICD-11 in the U.S. and pressure from the government to incorporate the EMR.

  • In February 2023, Ventra Health, a global provider of practice management, RCM, and advisory services announced the acquisition of Deras Global Services, a company based in the Philippines. The acquisition is an important aspect of Ventra Health's strategy for service delivery and workforce development on the international level.

Medical Billing Outsourcing Market Growth & Trends

A large amount of clinical code representation for treatment and diagnosis along with the presence of various payers renders medical billing an integral part of any clinical practice. Currently, the healthcare system is witnessing a subsequent rise in the outsourcing of clinical billing services by hospitals and physicians due to the mandatory implementation of complex ICD-11 coding systems, rising healthcare costs, and the federal mandate to deploy EMR to maintain reimbursement levels.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the market, although the healthcare industry was trailing in embracing innovative and digital technologies to improve healthcare. The COVID-19 scenario had put an enormous burden on healthcare providers/organizations to become accustomed to the change. The need for proactive action and the construction of collaborative, comprehensive, adaptable, and scalable digital healthcare infrastructure has been emphasized by the pandemic crisis. Owing to this, many organizations have developed a new strategy that includes digitization and outsourcing non-core functions such as billing and accounting, which has further increased the market growth.

How the marriage of primary care and behavioral health is driving the EHR industry

  As more primary care providers integrate behavioral health services into their practice, EHR platforms must evolve to meet the needs of healthcare providers and their patients. The U.S. is suffering from a mental healthcare crisis. According to the   National Alliance on Mental Illness  (NAMI), one in five adults in the U.S. experience a mental health disorder each year, but less than half (47.2%) received treatment in 2021. These data points become even more devastating when you consider that suicide is the second leading cause of death among children age 10- to 14-years-old, with one in six kids age 6- to 17-years-old suffering from a mental health disorder every year. The silver lining here, if there is one, is that deep-rooted stigmas attached to behavioral healthcare are finally losing their crushing grip on our patient populations as more people openly discuss mental health issues.
