However, the vast medical vocabulary, abbreviations, and a host of complex medical concepts are a major challenge for the market. The incorrect processing of these concepts and vocabulary, especially in cases when the same abbreviation applies to a number of scenarios, can result in medical errors and ambiguity. The scenario thus makes the analysis of healthcare data a highly complex and complicated process, thus hampering the application of NLP systems for processing it. The slow rate of adoption of electronic healthcare records and the necessary processing systems is also hampering the growth prospects of the market to a certain extent.
