IoT in Healthcare Market Size, Share, & Trends 2031
Meticulous Research®—a leading market research company, published a research report titled, ‘IoT in Healthcare Market Size, Share, Forecast, & Trends Analysis by Offering (Monitoring Devices (Glucose, Cardiac, Respiratory, Blood Pressure, Neuro) Pacemaker, ICD, Insulin Pump) Application (Telehealth, In-Patient) End User — Global Forecast to 2031.’
According to this
latest publication from Meticulous Research®, the global IoT in
healthcare market was valued at $45.34 billion in 2023. This market is expected
to reach $121.45
billion by 2031 from an estimated $50.61 billion in 2024, at a CAGR of
13.3% during the forecast period of 2024-2031. The Internet of Things (IoT) in
healthcare enhances remote patient monitoring, treatment, telemedicine, and
diagnostic accuracy, thereby improving the quality of healthcare services. This
market’s growth is driven by the increasing adoption of digital healthcare
solutions, a rising focus on patient-centric care, and supportive digital
health initiatives. However, the high costs associated with IoT infrastructure
and limited IoT technology adoption in developing countries restrain the growth
of this market.

Scientific Corporation (U.S.), Honeywell Life Care Solutions (U.S.), BIOTRONIK
SE & Co. KG (Germany), AgaMatrix, Inc. (U.S.), Securitas Healthcare, LLC.
(U.S.), AliveCor, Inc. (U.S.), iHealth Labs, Inc. (U.S.), Johnson & Johnson
(U.S.), Baxter International Inc. (U.S.), and OMRON Healthcare, Inc. (U.S.).
How AI Enhances IoT
Medical Device Risks:
While AI-enhanced
IoT medical devices deliver powerful real-time insights, they
simultaneously introduce new and complex risks. Artificial intelligence
augments the ability of these devices to analyze health data, predict potential
complications, and automate early interventions. Yet, this complexity opens
vulnerabilities—AI-driven devices collect massive volumes of sensitive health
data, making them targets for cybercriminals. There are concerns about data
privacy, system hacking, erroneous decision-making due to algorithmic failures,
and the propagation of bias if AI models are not properly validated. Thus,
while AI adds meaningful diagnostic and operational value to IoT devices, it
also amplifies the need for robust cybersecurity, continuous monitoring,
and algorithmic transparency within healthcare settings.
The Impact of IoMT
on Future Patient Care and Healthcare Costs:
The implications of
IoMT for future patient care are profound. Remote patient monitoring (RPM),
empowered by IoT, is enabling seamless tracking of chronic conditions,
immediate detection of anomalies, and coordinated intervention—all from the
patient’s home. This translates to reduced hospital admissions, enhanced
adherence to treatment plans, and early identification of disease progression.
The result is better patient outcomes, greater accessibility—especially in
rural or underserved populations—and improved cost efficiency for
healthcare providers.
IoMT is also set to
significantly reduce healthcare costs. By automating routine processes,
optimizing resource allocation, and lowering the frequency of in-person
consultations, hospitals and clinics are poised to manage escalating
expenditures. Patients, on the other hand, benefit from minimized travel
and wait time, and greater engagement in managing their own health.
COVID-19 and the
Acceleration of IoT Adoption in Remote Patient Monitoring:
The emergence of the
COVID-19 pandemic was a catalyst for mass IoT adoption in healthcare. Strict
social distancing and overloaded healthcare resources demanded novel strategies
for patient care management. During this period, wearable devices and remote
monitoring systems became instrumental for tracking vital signs and supporting
teleconsultations, dramatically expanding their user base. In Wuhan,
China, AI-synced smart bracelets delivered around-the-clock monitoring of
COVID-19 patients’ vitals. India’s Aarogya Setu mobile app leveraged IoT
connectivity for risk assessment and exposure notifications—demonstrating the
versatility and scale of IoT-driven solutions in crisis settings.
These innovations not
only enhanced pandemic response but shifted providers’ and regulators’
mindsets, unlocking investment and integration of IoT technologies in everyday
clinical practice. Today, more than 74% of US patients have accessed telehealth
services that rely on IoT frameworks.
Challenges Facing
Widespread IoT Implementation in Healthcare:
Despite its meteoric
rise, several hurdles challenge the widespread implementation of IoT in
healthcare. First and foremost are cybersecurity and data privacy concerns—healthcare
data is among the most sensitive and frequently targeted by cyberattacks.
Ensuring end-to-end encryption, secure data transmission, and compliance with
regulations such as HIPAA remains a monumental task.
Interoperability poses
another obstacle, as disparate devices and platforms must communicate
seamlessly to realize the full benefits of interconnected care. Without
universal standards, integrating legacy systems with new IoT technologies can
lead to data silos and fragmented patient information. Additionally,
the initial costs for deploying IoT infrastructure and providing
adequate training to healthcare professionals can be significant, particularly
in developing regions.
Concerns related
to device reliability and accuracy are amplified when patient safety
is at stake. Regular calibration, certification, and oversight are crucial to
maintaining trust and efficacy in IoT-driven healthcare delivery.
