In Russia among the main barriers for m-Health market
development emphasize: low level of informatization of
the Russian medical institutions, poor command of the
IT culture among nurses, conservatism of physicians
and patients.
Nevertheless, according to the market participants’
forecasts, the m-Health market will rapidly expand;
doctors, patients (especially in large cities) will go for
providing and receiving medical services via mobile
technologies.
Market barriers and drivers
The most significant driver of m-Health market is a fast growing penetration of smartphones, the demand
for m-Health by patients/users, the implementation of patient-oriented models in the field of medical
services, technological innovation and easy access to mobile solutions. The increase in the target groups,
reducing costs of m-Health solutions, increasing number of companies’ partnerships, new innovative
market players, and costs reduction are among the important factors.
Consumer “non-readiness” is a constraint factor for m-Health market development. Patients and physicians
are unaware of the existence of m-Health solutions or cannot find them. On the other hand, cost is the
most important barrier for m-Health and often patients are not willing to pay for high-tech solutions.
Information security is also a barrier, as it includes a wide range of questions on data privacy protection
and data security. As a result, the target audience of m-Health (the elderly population, people with chronic
diseases) has a low penetration rate of smartphones, which is an additional constraint to the development
of m-Health market.
The m-Health market is relatively new and some problems need to be solved: development of a system of
interaction between participants, the choice of the most successful business models, building partnerships,
developing universal regulations and standards.
Trends and forecasts of m-Health market development
According to Research2Guidance, almost 500 mln of 1.4 bln. Smartphone users in 2015 will be using m-
Health apps.
Smartphone aps will become a killer application for many m-Health solutions. The price reduction will only
encourage this process. Average price for apps in Android Market dropped from 7,74 USD in 2010 to 4,31
USD in 2012, Blackberry – from 22,12 to 16,23 USD, Windows – from 4,99 to 2,99.
Furthermore, with the market development, distribution of m-Health solutions channels will change
