New technologies and healthcare consumerism are leading to outpatient growth, but providers face major challenges with outpatient care, a new survey shows.

Providers and other major healthcare stakeholders are increasingly investing in outpatient services and centers in response to new technologies and healthcare consumerism, according to a recent survey of 188 healthcare leaders.

The survey conducted by Definitive Healthcare found new technologies to be the number one reason for outpatient growth, earning the majority of votes with 37.3 percent.

Providers and other leaders across the biotech, financial services, staffing, life sciences, IT, and consulting verticals are attracted to new outpatient opportunities because of emerging technologies like advanced imaging, virtual and remote care, telehealth, and mobile applications.
