Because of the increased patient burden, the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on India healthcare industry, particularly hospitals. 5G enables the increasing access of advanced technologies, such as internet of things (IoT), big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and smart healthcare.

India 5G in Healthcare Market - Overview

A new health ecosystem that can accurately, effectively, conveniently, affordably, and at a sizeable scale meeting the needs of patients and providers will be made possible by 5G technology, which promises to deliver the necessary levels of connectivity. Many current use cases will be improved by 5G while new ones that are not currently possible with the current mobile technology will be created, such as remotely performed patient examinations and even operations. 5G technology helps to meet the increasing need for dependable connections for vital healthcare services. 5G is one of the world's fastest and most durable technologies. That means faster downloads, significantly less lag, and a significant impact on every aspect of human lives. Large files from MRIs and other image machines frequently need to be sent to a specialist for review. The transmission may take a long time or fail to send when the network has insufficient bandwidth. As a physician can meet fewer patients for consultation in the same amount of time, the patient must wait even longer for treatment. Massive data files of medical imagery can be transported quickly and reliably using a high-speed 5G network, which can enhance both access to care and the standard of care. 5G in healthcare will also expand telemedicine, real-time remote monitoring, and AI. By enabling all these technologies via 5G networks, healthcare systems can improve the quality of care and patient experience, as well as lower healthcare costs.

Growth Drivers

Rapid transition to smart healthcare from conventional healthcare systems

The traditional hospital-focused systems of smart healthcare are quickly giving way to distributed patient-focused systems. Numerous technology developments have sped up the healthcare industry's revolution. Advanced diagnostic tools are used in smart healthcare systems to offer patients advanced treatments and raise the standard of care by supplying real-time information. It allows for remote check-up services that shorten treatment times and costs and help healthcare providers extend their reach beyond local boundaries. A combination of IoT devices and 5G-enabled smart healthcare devices needs better network performance and expanded cellular coverage. To address the diverse communication needs of healthcare applications, 5G networks are being designed to support these devices.

Ability of 5G technology to transmit large patient data files quickly

With an increase in the number of applications and their reliance on the network, the healthcare sector is one of the fastest-expanding markets. This will result in complex demands being placed on the network in terms of bandwidth, data rate, and latency, among other factors. Many of the new connectivity requirements for healthcare providers are met by 5G technology. These include the higher connection densities, faster speeds, lower latency, and quality of service (QoS) guarantees required to develop new use cases. The healthcare sector's IT services and applications will soon be more connected than ever due to the development of innovative 5G technologies. The speed, coverage, and responsiveness of wireless networks in the healthcare sector will all significantly increase owing to cellular technology. Therefore, the healthcare sector's growing need for faster and more dependable data transmission is expected to fuel the growth of India 5G in healthcare market.

Increasing adoption of telehealth and robotics surgery due to COVID-19 pandemic

COVID-19 pandemic caused uncertainties and panic, and seeking medical advice was frequently necessary during the pandemic period when strict restrictions were in place. At that point, healthcare professionals realized that telehealth was the only safe way for them to deliver medical care and assistance. For instance, telehealth represented less than 5% of India's overall healthcare IT market before COVID-19 pandemic, but it increased to 47% during the pandemic, as noted by Neeraj Lal, chief operating officer of Apollo Hospitals in Ahmedabad. Telehealth has altered the way that healthcare is provided in India. During the pandemic, the use of surgical robots has also increased. The COVID-19 pandemic puts hospitals under unprecedented pressure. To fight the dangerous viral infection, automation and artificial intelligence are becoming more important in healthcare. Their impact on surgical performance and management may well outlive the pandemic. Robots can be integrated into various parts of the sequence that each surgical patient travels through during their hospital stay to effectively reduce the spread of pathogens. This workflow can be broken down into pre-operative care, anesthesia, surgical procedure, and post-operative care, with the overall goal of robotic integration to reduce contact between the patient and the healthcare provider at each stage of this workflow.

Restraints

High cost of 5G network deployment

Huge investments would be required to make the switch from 4G to 5G technology. The base station price, periodic interest rate, and required coverage density all have a significant impact on the cost of the 5G infrastructure. For effective and ultra-dense small-cell deployments, these costs must be reduced. To move services from 3G and 4G to 5G and transform their network to a virtualized infrastructure, communication service providers (CSPs) are required to invest billions of dollars in new network equipment. At the same time, they must safeguard their operations against the rising risks of disruptions and cyber threats. To fully take advantage of what 5G has to offer, telecommunication service providers (telcos) must make the switch to a standalone model. They will need a distributed, standalone network with an edge compute platform, network slicing, and control/user plane separation to successfully woo enterprise customers with low latency applications. The current standalone deployments have facilitated telcos' hasty development of their 5G rollout strategies, which are centered on providing consumers with fixed and mobile broadband services.

Impact of COVID-19 on India 5G in Healthcare Market

The healthcare sector has made significant efforts to transform its current infrastructure to combat the spread of COVID-19. The ongoing crisis has sped up the transition to digital healthcare systems, placing a greater emphasis on the adoption of remote care/telehealth services, thermal imaging solutions, averting future health crises, and utilizing cutting-edge technologies. All these services require a significant amount of bandwidth, especially online medical consultations that use real-time video conferencing and image transmission. High bandwidth and dependable data connectivity services are possible with 5G networks. The market for 5G in healthcare in India has expanded since the pandemic and is projected to expand rapidly during the period in analysis.
