IMPACT OF COVID-19

The global COVID-19 epidemic and the ensuing lockout have caused the healthcare market to continue to decline. Aside from affecting communities, COVID-19 had devastating effects on the major world economies, particularly the healthcare industry. Important parties are continuing to modify their tactics in response to the fast-shifting circumstances. The healthcare sector is expected to see severe long-term effects from COVID-19. Prioritized healthcare reforms would need to be implemented by nations and significant stakeholders until the situation is resolved.

Soon, major healthcare reforms will include increased access, cost containment, and technological advancement. In the ongoing outbreak, telemedicine and digital health have assumed a prominent role. The value of remote diagnosis, care, and consultation was reemphasized in COVID-19. Growth in Telehealth has been delayed over the last few years by legislative and behavioural constraints. However, because so many healthcare organisations are presently experimenting with video conferencing and phone conversations, the growth of this market will multiply many times over the next two years. Patients with mild symptoms were also required to consult online as part of the social distancing strategies. It also significantly lessens the strain on hospitals, which are already overburdened by the number of COVID-19 patients. The usage of medical IoT devices that are housed with patients at home helps to maximize outpatient care while reducing the need for follow-up visits. These devices can also be employed in an emergency. A serious lack of resources was caused by the pandemic. Future market growth is anticipated to be accelerated by the emergence of value-based pricing and competitive pricing structures as a result.

As a result of these considerations, COVID 19 is anticipated to have a big impact on Blockchain technology in the healthcare business.

By Network Type

Public, private, and other network types are included in the healthcare sector's use of blockchain technology. The main reason why public networks are being used more frequently for data management is their significant proportion of the market. Today, one of the most widely used technologies in the healthcare industry is Ethereum, a public network. The blockchain technology is additionally known as "permission-less." These public networks have become increasingly popular due to their low cost and availability of a wider database.

Also predicted to have significant growth in the upcoming years is the private segment. The private network is implemented, for example, by the Hyperledger Fabric from the Linux foundation. They provide great security, quick transactions, and privacy. They are therefore created and utilised for specific corporate requirements. Data management and recording features, together with the rise in need for highly secure supply chain networks, are the main reasons driving the growth of the private sector. Furthermore, the use of blockchain in healthcare is anticipated to be fueled by future features of technical improvements.

By Application

Applications on the blockchain support maintaining data integrity. Additionally, the technology aids in Internet of Things (IoT) device interoperability for pharmaceutical organisations. Additionally, it aids in drug supply chain regulation and applicant recruitment for clinical trials. Blockchain has the potential to revolutionize the healthcare industry by reducing operational costs, preventing data loss, and streamlining medical procedures.

During the projection period, there is expected to be noticeable growth in the clinical trials & eConsent category. A clinical trial's data management and security are made more effective by utilizing technology. Clinicians can securely connect internally thanks to blockchain integration. Since information cannot be changed or altered on the blockchain, market growth is projected in the years to come. The use of blockchain technology in medical records guarantees the accuracy of the data. Clinical studies, where the records are a crucial component of laws, can benefit from analogous principles.

By End-user

Large R&D spending, the requirement for safe data interchange and interoperability, and a significant quantity of data management carried out by these businesses in areas like medication research and development are all to blame for this.

It is also predicted that a significant portion of the market share will come from the growing use of technology for critical tasks like ensuring the authenticity of a drug being returned, preventing counterfeiting, adhering to the pharmaceutical supply chain, ensuring transparency and traceability in clinical trials, and enhancing the accuracy and quality of clinical trial data.

Due to hospitals like the Massachusetts General Hospital increasingly utilizing technology, the hospital segment is anticipated to expand at a rapid rate (MGH). Hospitals and healthcare facilities are currently working to store patient data to ensure the system's efficient operation. This aids in categorizing both new and returning patients and makes use of previous records to support the doctor's appointment. Additionally, the system will shield sensitive data from data breaches and hackers, protecting things like payment information, addresses, and phone numbers.

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to compete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
