Digital Infrastructure Is Becoming Essential to Hospital Operations

Healthcare providers are increasingly upgrading their IT infrastructure to manage clinical, administrative, and operational workflows through connected systems. Hospital information systems can reduce staff workload while improving operational outcomes, making them increasingly relevant as hospitals face pressure to provide effective care while controlling expenditures.

The growing implementation of healthcare IT services and solutions, together with the need to upgrade existing systems, is supporting adoption. Cloud-based services are also becoming more prominent as hospitals seek flexible access to information and improved connectivity between healthcare stakeholders.

A July 2024 example highlighted on the GVR page involves King’s College Hospital London in Dubai migrating its Oracle Health Electronic Health Record to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. The implementation achieved a 50% reduction in patient information access time, 20% less time reviewing medical charts, and a 25% overall decrease in EHR usage time.

EHRs Remain the Core of the Type Landscape

Electronic Health Records continue to represent the largest type segment. The EHR segment held a 56.9% market share in 2025, reflecting the importance of digital patient records within modern hospital environments. EHR platforms support access to patient information and contribute to coordinated care and improved workflow management.

Population health management is also becoming increasingly important as healthcare organizations move toward data-driven approaches for improving population health, patient experiences, and healthcare costs. The segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR over the forecast period.

Nursing information systems are also expected to witness strong growth, supported by increasing demand for effective disease management strategies. Artificial intelligence is further contributing to innovation in population health management through applications involving patient engagement, clinical documentation, and hospital administration.

Web-Based Platforms Lead While Cloud Adoption Accelerates

Deployment patterns are changing as healthcare facilities look for accessible and scalable information infrastructure. Web-based systems held the largest share of 42.1% in 2025, supported by their ability to facilitate communication and data sharing among medical personnel, patients, and other stakeholders.

Cloud-based systems, however, are expected to record the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. Cloud platforms can provide real-time access to information, support patient-provider communication, and offer secure health information storage. This model is also aligned with the broader movement toward flexible healthcare infrastructure.

Software Is the Main Technology Layer

Software accounted for the largest component share at 45.0% in 2025. These solutions perform critical functions involving data capture, storage, interpretation, and analysis. Regular upgrades are important because hospitals need systems that can incorporate newer analytics methods and support evolving workflows.

Services are expected to register the fastest CAGR from 2026 to 2033. Optimization, hosting, consulting, and installation services help healthcare organizations implement and manage increasingly sophisticated information systems. The expansion of technologically advanced solutions is consequently creating additional demand for specialized support.

AI Is Adding a New Layer of Intelligence

Artificial intelligence is changing how hospital information systems handle repetitive and data-intensive activities. AI can support administrative functions such as data entry, billing, and coding, potentially reducing human error and allowing healthcare professionals to dedicate more time to patient care.

Large datasets can also be analyzed to generate predictive insights and personalized treatment recommendations. AI-enabled systems can support information sharing across healthcare environments, improving coordination among providers.

Oracle Health's Clinical AI Agent is one example cited on the GVR page, combining clinical automation, note generation, integrated dictation, and proposed actions into a unified experience. A February 2026 pilot involving Lumeo Regional Health Information System used the solution across six healthcare organizations, with the AI-powered system reported to reduce physicians' administrative workload by 30% on average.

Cybersecurity Remains a Major Consideration

Greater connectivity also increases exposure to cybersecurity threats. Hospital information systems contain sensitive patient information and increasingly connect with electronic health records, telehealth platforms, remote monitoring devices, and other digital healthcare technologies.

Ransomware, unauthorized access, and system disruptions remain concerns. Limited cybersecurity budgets, shortages of skilled IT professionals, and legacy infrastructure can further increase vulnerabilities.

Regional Adoption Reflects Different Stages of Healthcare Digitization

North America accounted for the largest regional share at 42.7% in 2025, supported by healthcare infrastructure, digital literacy, EHR adoption, healthcare information technology, telehealth, and remote patient monitoring. Asia Pacific is expected to record the fastest CAGR from 2026 to 2033 as healthcare digitization, government initiatives, interoperability requirements, and operational-efficiency programs expand.

Europe is advancing through digital transformation and initiatives focused on healthcare efficiency, interoperability, and patient outcomes. Latin America is experiencing demand for advanced healthcare solutions amid population aging and chronic disease requirements. Meanwhile, the Middle East & Africa market is supported by healthcare expenditure and government investments in interoperability and AI.
