The global Healthcare Digital Payment Market size is expected to reach USD 54.80 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 21.5% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new study conducted by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth of the market can be attributed to the demand for digital payment methods from patients. For instance, in May 2023, according to the survey of 1,348 U.S. healthcare consumers conducted by Salucro, a software company, around 62% of the respondents said patient portals were their preferred method for paying medical bills.

The growing smartphone and internet penetration also have resulted in the growth of the telemedicine industry. Hence, such widespread digitalization in the healthcare sector is anticipated to fuel the growth of the market. Furthermore, several pharmacies have adopted an e-commerce business module for delivering medicines to the doorstep of patients to offer them convenience while purchasing medicines, thereby fueling online payments in the healthcare industry.

The increasing partnerships and collaborations between the hospitals and the digital payment provider are another major factor driving the market's growth. Similarly, the increasing use of digital wallets, credit & debit cards, and other online payment modes among customers across the globe bode well for the market's growth. Moreover, the increased financial transparency to both providers and patients while improving the overall healthcare experience has demanded digital payment in the healthcare sector.

Governments and healthcare regulatory bodies implemented changes to facilitate the use of telehealth and digital healthcare services during the pandemic, thereby driving market growth. Furthermore, digital payment systems allowed for easier billing, electronic statements, and payment plans, improving the overall patient financial experience during a challenging time. Hence, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption and innovation of digital payment solutions in healthcare, and these changes are expected to have a lasting impact on the industry's landscape.
