Digital Therapeutics Market Size & Trends

The global digital therapeutics market size was valued at USD 6.2 billion in 2023 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.2% from 2024 to 2030. This growth is being driven mainly by the cost-effectiveness of digital health technology for providers as well as patients and a rapid pace of smartphone penetration in developed & developing economies. According to Kepios, there were 5 billion internet users in April 2022 around the world, which accounted for 63.0% of the global population. As this figure increases, awareness of smart health tracking is expected to enhance. Further, increasing demand for patient-centric care & integrated healthcare systems are expected to drive the market. Supportive reimbursement, the COVID-19 pandemic, early signs of reimbursement, and the rising incidence of chronic diseases are also expected to fuel the market growth.

U.S. Digital Therapeutics Market size and growth rate, 2023 - 2030

A rapid rise in internet penetration across the globe had a positive impact on the market. As per The Mobile Economy 2022 statistics published by the GSM Association, the number of people using mobile services was 5.3 billion in 2021, and the number of distinctive mobile subscribers is expected to rise to 5.7 billion by 2025 (70% of the global population). Penetration of smartphones is also rising significantly. The same report states that smartphone penetration was 75% in 2021 and is expected to reach 84% by 2025. Consumers' growing use of smartphones is driving the growth of various mHealth applications in this market.

COVID-19 notably propelled the rate of change in digital therapeutics by accelerating regulatory flexibility, thus expanding access to digital health products and fueling patient demand. The pandemic boosted the demand for accessible and convenient digital health solutions. For instance, as per guidelines released by the FDA in April 2020, for the duration of this pandemic, it would allow the use and distribution of digital health therapeutic devices for psychiatric disorders. Thus, vendors could commercialize their solutions without complying with usual regulatory requirements, provided the devices do not create any undue public health emergency.

Market Dynamics

An increasing incidence of chronic diseases significantly contributes to market growth. As per CDC’s National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, 6 in 10 American adults suffer from a chronic disease, while 4 out of 10 adults have 2 or more chronic diseases. In February 2022, Chronic Care Complete was launched by Teladoc Health, Inc., which represents the novel solution for complete chronic condition management that aims to improve healthcare outcomes. Additionally, health issues such as cancer, cardiovascular disorders, chronic kidney disease, diabetes, chronic lung disease, and Alzheimer's have been considered to be the leading causes of mortality and disability in the United States.

Growing regulatory initiatives are anticipated to propel standardization and R&D in the market over the forecast period. The Software Pre-Cert Pilot Program is part of the FDA's Digital Health Innovation Action Plan intended to imply a more efficient governing oversight of software-based medical devices (SaMD) developed by manufacturers. The program aims to develop an efficient regulatory oversight for assessing organizations to establish trust that they can develop high-quality Software-as-a-Medical-Device (SaMD) products. For instance, initiatives, such as the National Digital Health Mission (NDHM), are expected to accelerate the adoption rate of the e-healthcare model in India.

Application Insights

Based on applications, the market is segmented into diabetes, obesity, CVDs, smoking cessation, CNS disease, and others. The diabetes segment dominated the market with the largest market share of 29.4% in 2023 and is expected to register the fastest CAGR of 28.8% over the forecast period. Factors that drive the segment growth include the growing prevalence of diabetes and other chronic diseases.

The growing prevalence of diabetes has driven the need to develop customized solutions for treating patients. As per the CDC, as of 2020, close to 37.3 million people (11.3% of the population) were living with diabetes in the U.S. Similarly, 96 million people above 18 years of age suffered from prediabetes and 38.0% of the U.S. adult population were estimated to face this condition during this period. Thus, digital therapeutics makes this process easier by providing a patient-centric approach. Solutions for diabetes provide patients with technology to help keep track of their routines and treatments daily on wearable devices or smartphones.

The obesity segment held the second-largest market share, due to the growing obesity in population globally. Digital therapeutics provide cost-effective solutions for the treatment of many chronic diseases, which is expected to fuel segment growth in the near future. CVDs and smoking cessation, along with obesity, are expected to demonstrate significant growth rates during the forecast period.

End-use Insights

Based on end-use, the market is segmented into providers, patients, employers, payers, and others. The patient segment held the largest market share of 34.08% in 2023, owing to patients' rapid adoption of digital therapeutics. Patients receive evidence-based, personalized care programs. Digital therapeutics can also help improve access to care for people, especially those from rural and remote areas. It can help providers monitor patients in real-time and identify gaps in care, providing timely interventions. It improves the efficiency of care delivery through evidence-based care therapies. These solutions can reduce the need for frequent intervention of physicians in managing people with chronic conditions.

Global Digital Therapeutics Market share and size, 2023

The growth of the providers segment can be attributed to more providers leveraging digital therapeutics to support & deliver therapies that are medically proven, outside of a care setting, in addition to providing reliable patient engagement. Payers are increasingly interested in covering digital therapeutics due to which the segment shows a significant growth scope. Also, they are encouraged to undertake initiatives by business models that facilitate adherence and enhance efficacy while reducing costs.

Regional Insights

North America dominated the market with a revenue share of 40.43% in 2023. The overall market in the region is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period owing to favorable reimbursement scenarios focused on improved tracking and diagnosis, and improved quality of life through increased use of digital health products. Moreover, strategic initiatives undertaken by key players in this region, such as new product launches and mergers & acquisitions, are expected to result in lucrative growth.

Digital Therapeutics Market Trends by Region, 2023 - 2030

Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness substantial growth, with the fastest CAGR of 29.4% over the forecast period due to high demand for IT services and increased government spending on healthcare. Furthermore, demand for healthcare IT systems has been increasing as they enable efficient management of hospitals' clinical, financial, and administrative aspects. A rise in smartphone penetration, an increase in demand for effective healthcare, and improved Internet access are the underlying factors facilitating a rapid increase in Asia Pacific's digital therapeutics industry.
