Positioning The Industry For Growth In Robotic Surgery
Oliver Wyman August 11, 2023
The robotic-assisted surgery market could hit $14 billion globally by 2026. But challenges around clinical evidence, cost, and payment need to be navigated.
Robotic-assisted surgery has evolved over the past 25 years from a novel and experimental technique to a mainstream practice, transforming the way we approach complex surgical procedures. With advancements in technology and increased experience, robotic-assisted surgery continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in the operating room. But to make it more affordable, safer, easier to use, and scalable, we need to keep adapting and learning. This will require overcoming challenges associated with high costs and steep learning curves while exploring new ways to improve the technology and its applications.
