Outpatient Rehabilitation Centers Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2024 - 2029)

Outpatient Rehabilitation Centers Market Analysis

The Outpatient Rehabilitation Centers Market is projected to register a CAGR of 7.1% during the forecast period.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the outpatient rehabilitation centers market was adversely affected due to supply chain issues. Various research studies have provided insight into the impact of Covid on the studied market. For instance, in May 2020, a study published titled "COVID-19: Maintaining Essential Rehabilitation Services Across the Care Continuum" stated that enhanced measurement and monitoring are desperately needed at the individual, health system, and national levels. With the release of the world health organization (WHO) Rehabilitation Guide for Action, few countries had fully completed a systematic assessment of the rehabilitation situation and developed a strategic plan to adequately meet rehabilitative needs prior to this pandemic or to activate during pandemics. The following recommendations are provided to mitigate the consequences of COVID-19's impact on rehabilitation care and support continued health with a reduced risk of disability. Governments need to include rehabilitation and other direct care providers in home-based and community-based settings in their plans for personal protective equipment acquisition and training. Global collaboration among rehabilitation professionals needs to accelerate the sharing of resources, instructional tools, education, and training packets for how patients and families can continue rehabilitation at home during a pandemic response. Public health messaging on mental and physical health while social distancing needs to expand with input from rehabilitation professionals to provide guidance for persons living with physical and cognitive limitations, with and without caregivers. Public-private partnerships are needed to better support the rapid scale of telehealth today and in the future to ensure effective use, financing, cybersecurity, access, and increased reliability of broadband networks to reach people in low-resourced areas. Hence, with such initiatives, the market will grow in the upcoming future.

Factors such as increasing geriatric populations and increasing unhealthy lifestyles are primary reasons for the growth of the market. According to the World Health Organization report (WHO) report in 2020, by 2030, 1 out of every six people on the planet will be 60 years old or older. The number of people aged 60 and up is expected to rise from 1 billion in 2020 to 1.4 billion by 2050. By 2050, the global population of people aged 60 and above will get double to reach 2.1 billion. Between 2020 and 2050, the number of people aged 80 and above is expected to triple, reaching 426 million. According to the same source, while population aging - the shift in the distribution of a country's population towards older ages - began in high-income countries (for example, in Japan, 30% of the population is already over 60 years old), it is now low- and middle-income countries that are seeing the most change. Two-thirds of the world's population over the age of 60 will live in low- and middle-income countries by 2050. Since the older population is prone to diseases, this will increase the demand for outpatient care, thereby boosting market growth.

Increasing sedentary lifestyles and unhealthy food habits are key factors for the growth of the market as it increases the prevalence of diseases and thus require having outpatient care. According to the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5) report 2019-2021, published in March 2022, there has been an increase in obesity in children under the age of five in 33 states and union territories. Experts have attributed the increase in obesity to a lack of physical activity and unhealthy eating habits. Additionally, a large majority of Indians tend to lead sedentary lives and lack the motivation to exercise. Hence, an increasingly sedentary lifestyle will increase the prevalence of diseases, which will boost the growth of the market in the upcoming future.

Thus, owing to the above-mentioned factors, the studied market growth is expected to increase during the study period.
