The global digital therapeutics market size is anticipated to reach USD 19.1 billion by 2028, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 23.1% from 2021 to 2028. The key drivers for this growth include increasing incidence of chronic diseases, digitization, demand for innovative and affordable healthcare, and government initiatives.
Digital health went from novel to necessity during 2020. It swept through almost every healthcare domain as adoption peaked, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. This included telehealth, telemedicine, digital pathology, triage solutions, mhealth, as well as digital therapeutics. Omada Health, Inc., a digital therapeutics provider, leveraged the gaps in care due to COVID-19 to provide extra support and guidance from its licensed specialists to those who had their doctor’s appointments deferred indefinitely. The company also helped primary care providers, therapists, endocrinologists, and cardiologists convert their practices to telehealth through enhanced education, psychosocial support, and remote monitoring.
In response to COVID-19 and its repercussions on mental health, the FDA released guidelines expanding and promoting the scope of digital health therapeutic devices for mental health conditions. Rising initiatives by public and private players is another factor expected to propel the market growth. For instance, in June 2020, Akili Interactive Labs, Inc. received the CE mark for its digital therapeutic software for the treatment of ADHD called EndeavorRx.
With an increase in internet usage and dependency on smartphones, digital therapeutics is set to register continued growth over the forecast period. This is owing to increased demand for creative and innovative treatment options that could be used remotely by patients. In February 2021, SilverCloud partnered with Cerner Corporation to integrate its virtual mental health platform with the latter’s electronic health records. With this, SilverCloud intended to scale the delivery of evidence-based mental health treatment while improving patient outcomes and lowering the cost of care.
