The global medical alert systems market revenue was valued at USD 8.31 billion in 2023 and is poised to grow from USD 9.24 billion in 2024 to USD 24.01 billion by 2033 at a CAGR of 11.2% during the forecast period 2024 - 2033. The increasing geriatric population, especially in developed countries, is expected to drive the growth of the medical alert systems market.
The medical alert systems market deals with devices that are designed to call for help in conditions of medical emergency. These systems include wearable devices, such as bracelets or pendants, with a button that the consumer can press to inform a monitoring center. When the button is pressed, the monitoring center gets a notification, and trained personnel can dispatch appropriate help and assess the situation, such as for emergency family members or medical services.
The rising strong focus on financial assistance, growing favorable healthcare policies, and increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart diseases are estimated to drive the growth of the market. In addition, continuous innovations such as connectivity options, GPS tracking, and improved sensors are anticipated to enhance the growth of the medical alert systems market during the forecast period.
Quick response time and increased independence to fuel the market growth.
One of the major advantages of a medical alert system is that it offers quick response times in the situation of a medical emergency. When users press their device button, they can immediately connect with an emergency response center, which can dispatch emergency services if essential. This emergency service can be especially crucial in conditions where every second counts, such as in the situation of a heart attack or stroke.
In addition, the fear of facing or falling into a medical emergency for many individuals can limit their ability and independence to live life on their own terms. A medical alert system can help seniors feel more secure and confident in their capability to live with minimal assistance or alone, knowing that help and better services are just one press away. These are the major factors expected to drive the growth of the medical alert systems market.
However, security and privacy concerns about medical alert systems may restrain the growth of the market. Security and privacy are major concerns when it comes to pairing devices with others and connecting a device to home internet networks in more high-tech setups. At the same time, there are no major studies and violation cases connected to medical alert devices. These medical alert systems are always associated with high-cost setups. Depending on the user’s budget, medical alert systems cannot be an investment users are willing or able to make. In addition, there is always the risk of false alarms in medical alert systems. These cause unwanted team responses and extra fees, as well as heightened stress for family members. These are some major hindering factors that may restrain the growth of the medical alert systems market.
