Based on service types, the global ambulatory care services market is categorized into

• Primary care offices
• Outpatient departments
• Emergency departments

The global ambulatory care services market is experiencing an increase in demand due to cost-effective, quick, and high-quality medical services as an alternative to inpatient care. Primary care offices hold the largest market as it is the first point of care. Government and non-government organizations are taking initiatives to invest in general practitioners’ practices and transform them into community-based care.

Outpatient care is anticipated to register faster growth, as it has become an alternative to inpatient care due to the increase in chronic diseases, the aging population, and ailments requiring immediate medical intervention. To provide patient care, ambulatory care services have seen tremendous technological advancement. Overall, the global ambulatory care services market is highly competitive, with multiple players like DaVita Healthcare, LVL Group, Fresenius Kabi, AmSurg, etc., specializing in their respective fields.

Consolidation activities are being increasingly witnessed on the competitive front with a view to increasing the ambulatory care service market by using well-equipped logistics on the ground and air to reach out to patients in remote areas, emergency calls for accidents or trauma cases, and the provision of life-stabilizing services, i.e., catheters, ventilators, surgical equipment, infusion pumps, etc.

Based on surgery types, the global ambulatory care services market is categorized into

• Gastroenterology surgery
• Orthopedic surgery
• Ophthalmology surgery
• Plastic surgery
• Spinal injections

Ambulatory care provides many affordable healthcare services, such as orthopedic surgery, ophthalmology surgery, plastic surgery, gastroenterology surgery, etc. The patient does not need to be admitted to the hospital as the treatment is done outside the hospital’s premises.

Orthopedic surgery holds the largest segment as the number of life-threatening accidents requiring urgent medical care and surgeries is increasing. Plastic surgery is the fastest-growing segment over the forecast period due to the rise in accidents like burns, maxillofacial injuries, and rhinoplasty, high disposable incomes, and low self-esteem, which are propelling the number of facial and breast enlargement surgeries. The ambulatory care services are well equipped with catheters, ventilators, pediatric intensive care, etc.

For the purpose of this study, the global ambulatory care services market is categorized into:

• North America
• Europe
• Asia Pacific
• Latin America
• Middle East and Africa

In 2016, North America was identified as the largest market for ambulatory care services. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, people with one or more chronic medical conditions accounted for 86% of all healthcare spending in 2010. The rise in chronic diseases, the evolving reimbursement scenario for the geriatric population, and technological advancements in the ambulatory care services market are primarily responsible for the growth.

According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, in 2016, the European Union spent 115 billion euros on the treatment of chronic diseases. Europe is expected to be the second-largest market due to the high prevalence of chronic diseases, improved healthcare infrastructure, government and non-government organization initiatives to promote primary healthcare centers, and supportive reimbursement policies.

The growth of the Asia Pacific ambulatory care services market is attributed to factors like the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, flourishing medical tourism, and higher disposable income in these regions. However, factors such as developing health infrastructure, increasing awareness, and the need to reduce healthcare costs are going to fuel the rapid growth of the ambulatory care services market in Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa in the near future.
