Global Home Medical Equipment Market Size Is Estimated To Reach $56 Billion By 2027

Palm Beach, FL – November 9, 2021 – FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – Over the last few years, and with the ‘help’ of the pandemic, home health care medical equipment industry has surged. Home medical equipment are medical devices that offer safe, convenient, cost-effective, and suitable environment to patients within their home. The home medical equipment market has transformed within recent years, owing to increase in prevalence of various chronic diseases across the globe. Further, oxygen-related products in home medical equipment are gaining high adoption, due to significant increase in incidence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) worldwide. Numerous devices are used for patient care at home, for example, infusion pumps, wheel chair, apnea monitors, glucose meters, and cannula. For instance, glucose meters or glucometers are routinely used at home to assess the level of glucose in blood for diabetics. Further, new technologies such as needle-free diabetic care, medication administration equipment, and durable medical equipment, such as medical beds and lift chairs, propel the home medical equipment market growth. However, high cost associated with these devices is anticipated to hamper the growth of home medical equipment market.  A report from Allied Market Research said that the global home medical equipment market size, which was valued at $30,545.34 million in 2019, is estimated to reach $56,457.87 million by 2027, registering a CAGR of 6.1% from 2020 to 2027. It added that the therapeutic segment accounted for majority of home medical equipment market share in 2019 and is anticipated to continue its dominance throughout the forecast period. This is attributed to increased usage of therapeutic products for home care such as home respiratory therapy products and ventilators.  Active healthcare companies in the markets this week include Quipt Home Medical Corp. (NASDAQ: QIPT) (TSX-V: QIPT), AdaptHealth Corp. (NASDAQ: AHCO), ResMed Inc. (NYSE: RMD), Amedisys, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMED), Apria, Inc. (NASDAQ: APR).

 

The report continued: “The growth of the global home medical equipment market is driven by the increase in incidence of chronic diseases and considerable rise in geriatric population across the globe. Furthermore, technological advancements in home care medical equipment such as smaller size, portability and ease to access contributes to the market growth. However, surge in concerns related to patient safety and difficulty in adapting to medical devices restrain the growth. The growth potential in the emerging economies of Asia-Pacific is expected to provide numerous opportunities for market expansion during the forecast period.  North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. North America accounted for the largest market share in the home medical equipment market in (recent years) and is expected to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period(2027). This is attributed to the surge in chronic diseases such as asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure, and others in this region. However, Asia-Pacific is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period owing to surge in disposable income, rise in awareness among people toward benefits of homecare medical devices.”

It is expected that post integration the acquisition will increase Quipt’s annual revenues by approximately $2.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA by $0.6 million.

 

Management Commentary – “Our robust operating engine and proven ability to integrate acquired assets allows us to continue the strong pace of closing strategic acquisitions. Since July we have now completed 6 acquisitions with combined revenues of over $16 million. Combining these newly acquired entities provides us a pathway to scale into new states with each business having a proven track record in the markets they serve and diversified product mixes. In this short period of time, we have amassed infrastructure in 4 new states and further penetrated existing states such as Illinois,” said Greg Crawford, Chairman and CEO of Quipt. “Given the favorable regulatory environment, we have been able to accelerate our expansion efforts by economically acquiring smaller respiratory focused home medical providers throughout the United States that fit our stringent acquisition criteria. This newest transaction in Illinois is another example of our strategy to make tuck-in acquisitions to fill in attractive geographies, obtain important insurance contracts, add to our active patient base, and build out our referring physician network. Our current pipeline consists of companies reflective of all three tiers of our previously disclosed acquisition strategy and we are extremely optimistic we will maintain momentum in closing targets that fit the mold.”  CONTINUED…    Read this and more news for the Quipt Home Medical Corp. at:  https://quipthomemedical.com/press-releases/
