Long Term Care Market Is Predicted To Grow Quickly Due To Increasing Medical Coverage For Home Healthcare Till 2024: Grand View Research, Inc.
The global Long Term Care (LTC) market is
expected to reach USD 1,109 billion by 2024, according to a new report by Grand
View Research, Inc. The market is expected to boom owing to the increasing
awareness of people about the different home healthcare facilities, the
increasing medical coverage for home healthcare, and the increasing aging
population.
In October 2015, there were
around 12 million people receiving home healthcare and the number is expected
to increase dramatically. Moreover, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, the
population aged 65 and older is expected to reach 84 million by 2050 as against
43.1 million in 2012. Moreover, there has been a shift to in-home care from
long term care. The nursing homes have shrunk by 350 over the past six years,
while the in-home nursing programs have doubled.

Further key findings from the study suggest:
- In 2015, the home healthcare dominated the market
owing to the increasing awareness regarding home healthcare facilities,
the cost savings offered by them as compared to hospital stays or nursing
homes, and proactive health monitoring. Home healthcare is booming in the
developing countries owing to the increasing need for geriatric care,
double income households, and social changes. India has many home
healthcare startups such as Health Care at Home, Zoctr, Vatsalya, Care24,
Zozz, Life Circle Health Services, Healers at Home, and the
Nightingales.
- The hospice care is the fastest growing market owing
to the increasing incidence rates of Alzheimer’s and dementia and an
increase in the post-hospital care. Moreover, the coverage offered by both
the Medicaid and private insurers has relieved the residents from the
out-of-pocket payments that have to be borne by them. According to the Hospice
Association of America, Medicaid pays USD 601 per day for the inpatient
hospice care and USD 789 for 24-hour home care. Moreover, in August 2013,
the Palliative Care and Hospice Education and Training Act provided a
grant of USD 50 million for the training of doctors and allocating awards
for educators in the field.
- North America dominated the market in 2015. The
market for long term care services is majorly driven by the increasing
aging population, awareness about the advantages of home healthcare services,
and the government support. Around 13% of the people in the U.S. are 65
years or above. By 2050, it is expected that one in five Americans would
be at least 65 years of age.
- Asia Pacific is the fastest growing market owing to
the increasing rates of chronic diseases, the increasing disposable
incomes, and decreasing working population. For instance, in China, the
one-child policy has eventually decreased the working population as
compared to the older population. In May 2016, MyCareLine raised USD
526,000 for its alliance with Hoffman World. The Spanish Company provides
Hoffman methodology of rehabilitation. The method is commercial in Latin
America and Europe. In India, Portea is one of the market leaders in the
home healthcare industry. In September 2015, Portea raised USD 37.5
million for investing in better home healthcare facilities.
- Industry players are continuously investing on
expanding and revamping their existing facilities. For instance, in
February 2016, Sunrise Senior Living, Inc. started a new facility joining
its existing 41 Sunrise communities. The new facility will offer memory
care programming, assisted living services, and support to residents in
the early stage of memory loss.
- Major market players are Brookdale Senior Living,
Inc., Sunrise Senior Living, Inc., Emeritus Corporation, Atria Senior
Living Group, Extendicare, Inc., Gentiva Health Services, Inc., Senior
Care Centers of America, Kindred Healthcare, Inc., Genesis Healthcare
Corp., and Home Instead Senior Care, Inc.
