Northbrook, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/13/2021 -- The real-time location system market (RTLS) market for healthcare is expected to grow from USD 1.4 billion in 2020 to USD 3.9 billion by 2025; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 23.0% during the forecast period. The RTLS market for healthcare has been witnessing significant growth over the past years, mainly owing to the high adoption of RTLS solutions in hospitals and healthcare facilities and growing adoption in emerging use cases.

Impact of COVID-19 on RTLS Market for Healthcare:

The world is facing an economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic, like various other markets, has also led to a decline in the growth rate of the RTLS market for healthcare, especially in 2020 and 2021. This is mainly because COVID-19 has led to healthcare organizations dedicating a major part of their funds toward the procurement of medical equipment and other resources required to combat COVID-19. As RTLS solutions do not fall under the essential resources category required for COVID-19 treatment, this factor is expected to hinder the penetration rate of RTLS technology in the short run. Additionally, COVID-19 has also disrupted the supply chain of the RTLS market for healthcare, which is hindering the manufacturing, distribution, and installation of RTLS solutions.
