Market Insights

Growing Healthcare IT Industry in Emerging Economies

The job outlook for advanced practice nurses, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants (collectively known as “physician extenders”) is witnessing positive growth, as the US Bureau of Labor Statistics is projecting growth on the horizon of 45% and 31% through 2030, respectively, in the number of such jobs. This segment of clinicians will undoubtedly be an integral piece of the solution to bridge the gap in physicians that threatens to derail the healthcare delivery system.

Healthcare systems are recognizing that the recruitment and inclusion of extenders as part of the clinical staff has other benefits. The presence of physician extenders within an organization often means more efficient through-put, increased patient volume, and lower overhead and liability costs, leading to better patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes. This realization is evidenced in the 2021 Review of Physician and Advanced Practitioner Recruiting Incentives report, published by Merritt Hawkins, a division of AMN Healthcare, where it was reported that for the first time in the report’s 28-year history, nurse practitioners were the most sought-after type of medical provider. Presently, the world is struggling with the COVID-19 pandemic. This infection leads to pneumonia, severe and acute respiratory disorders, multiple organ failure, and in severe cases death. The geriatric population is more prone to COVID-19. Demand for nurse staffing increased significantly during the pandemic. According to EHRN, from September 2020 to December 2020, demand for hospital staffing increased by 50,000 nurses or 245%.

Use of physician extenders is growing because of their valuable role in healthcare delivery. Beyond providing coverage in areas that have historically been short on providers due to geography, physician extenders supplement the delivery system by acting as the senior medical personnel in a number of environments, including, but not limited to outpatient and clinic settings. They are often able to assess, treat, and diagnose patients in the absence of a licensed medical doctor. These attributes are expected to boost the growth of healthcare staffing market during the forecasted period.
