Market Insights and Analyst View:

An emergency department information system is an expanded electronic health record (EHR) system created specially to handle data and streamline procedures in support of emergency department patient care and operations. The ambulatory and inpatient environments are very dissimilar from the emergency department environment. Emergency care settings are episodic and typically more complex than ambulatory and inpatient settings, which prioritize longitudinal treatment. Patients frequently need quick medical attention and urgent care when they visit the emergency department. From check-in and triage to documentation and order processing, communication with other hospital employees, and discharge, speed, and accuracy are essential throughout the whole ED visit. Factors such as an increase in patient flow at emergency departments, and a rise in adoption of emergency department information systems drive the market growth. However, the huge investments and lack of skilled healthcare hinder the emergency department information system market growth.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

Emergency department information systems help enhance hospitals' decision-making by providing comprehensive real-time data for hospital administrations. Furthermore, the use of emergency department information systems during COVID-19 has grown dramatically, and crowding in emergency departments (EDs) affects both adult and pediatric hospitals. However, there has been an increase in pediatric patients visiting EDs in recent years. Data from the 2018 National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey showed 130 million annual ED visits, with 25.6 million, or one-third, made by patients under 15. In addition, a record number of pediatric behavioral health concerns, RSV, influenza, COVID-19, and ED visits from children occurred in late 2022 and early 2023. The demand for emergency department information systems is high in North America due to the wide acceptance of technology in countries such as the US and Canada. Also, the rising adoption of telematics healthcare digital transformation in healthcare settings, the growing expenditure in healthcare infrastructure, and the availability of technologically advanced devices are driving the US emergency department information systems market. In addition, the rapidly increasing adoption of hospital IT for greater efficiency in administrative processes propels the emergency department information system market growth.

High capital requirements for implementing emergency department information systems and low perceived return on investments are the major forces obstructing the adoption of these emergency department information systems. The installation of EDIS requires massive organizational changes and leads to alterations in the pattern of providing healthcare services in emergency departments. The financial and clinical outcomes of healthcare facilities are correlated, and this correlation dictates, to a reasonable extent, the investments suitable for achieving a particular health outcome. The cost of implementation, operation, and maintenance of EDIS is also a significant barrier to adopting such systems. Thus, despite the benefits of e-prescription systems, end users are reluctant to adopt e-prescribing solutions. The expenses are not limited to the one-time purchase price of a system. They involve recurrent costs incurred by implementation services, maintenance and support services, e-prescribing and EHR/EMR integration services, and, sometimes, training and education. As a result, smaller hospitals and office-based physicians refrain from investing in emergency department information systems.

The lack of expertise and skills required for handling modern healthcare IT and informatics solutions is another challenge healthcare providers face. Demand for research and healthcare is anticipated to rise with the aging of the baby boomer population. Simultaneously, a large percentage of skilled and experienced IT workforce is reaching the age of retirement. On the other hand, the number of younger workers available is not sufficient to fill this gap. The lack of expertise and administrative capacity required for data collection, health information analysis, and reporting is a common overarching challenge that limits EDIS implementation, thereby restraining market expansion.

Report Segmentation and Scope:

The “US Emergency Department Information System Market” is segmented on the basis of type, application, infection severity, end user, and country. 

Segmental Analysis:

Based on type, the US emergency department information system market is segmented into enterprise solutions and best-of-breed solutions. The best-of-breed solutions segment is likely to hold the largest share of the market in 2022. and the same segment projected to register the highest CAGR in the market during the forecast period.

  • Sample PDF showcases the content structure and the nature of the information with qualitative and quantitative analysis.

Enterprise solutions integrate a provider's branches and multiple legal entities through a centralized and distributed architecture in which data is synchronized to create a single database. The solution complies with the WHO, healthcare legal requirements, and insurance requirements. It is a cloud-based system that aids users in accessing real-time data from anywhere at any time. A centralized system manages all legal and financial entities in the enterprise solution, which makes business productive. The increasing acceptance of EHR/EMR, rising usage of big data in healthcare, financing for the preservation of electronic patient health records, and regulatory mandates are propelling the enterprise solutions segment growth.

The US emergency department information system market, by application, is segmented into computerized physician order entry (CPOE), clinical documentation, patient tracking, e-prescribing, and others. The computerized physician order entry (CPOE) segment held the largest share of the US emergency department information system market in 2022 and is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during 2022–2030. Computerized physician order entry (CPOE) is a software tool that assists doctors in entering medical orders into computer systems in inpatient and ambulatory settings. Many old ways of enlisting medicine orders, including spoken (in person or over the phone), written (paper prescriptions), and fax, are being replaced by CPOE. Users can define prescription orders, as well as laboratory, referral, admission, imaging, and treatment orders, electronically using these platforms. Government attempts to upgrade the IT infrastructure and information technology that aids in the lowering of healthcare expenses are driving the market for the CPOE segment.

The US emergency department information system market by end user is segmented into small hospitals, medium-sized hospitals, and large hospitals. The medium-sized hospitals segment is likely to lead the market for the US emergency department information systems in 2022 and is expected to retain its dominance during the forecast period 2022–2030. To lower the expenses and improve care quality, hospitals invest in information technology such as EDIS and EHR. Hospitals classified as medium-sized have between 94 and 277 general and surgical beds. The removal of decision support or patient level from the model resulted in insignificant correlations between all postulated paths, according to further study of the EHR construct.

Research further reveals that the presence of these two variables alone resulted in a statistically meaningful association with general safety, whereas all other routes were found to be insignificant. As a result, medium-sized hospitals should think about investing in emergency department information systems or electronic health record technologies that focus on decision support and patient-level data. According to the research, these applications can improve overall safety in medium-sized hospitals.
