Pediatric Software Market Report 2025

The pediatric software market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $30.63 billion in 2024 to $32.45 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to early technology adoption, regulatory milestones, shift towards electronic health records (EHR), early focus on pediatric wellness, recognition of pediatric mental health needs.

The pediatric software market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $44.83 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to adoption of value-based care models, expansion of pediatric mental health services, growing emphasis on preventive care, rising investment in pediatric healthcare, focus on interoperability standards. Major trends in the forecast period include personalized healthcare solutions, telehealth and remote monitoring, integration of AI and machine learning, emphasis on data security and privacy, mobile health (mhealth) solutions.

The rising adoption of electronic medical records (EMRs) is anticipated to drive growth in the pediatric software market. An electronic health record (EHR) is a computerized compilation of various medical records generated during clinical encounters or other events, serving as an advanced form of EMR that captures a patient's medical history digitally. Pediatric EHRs help minimize paperwork and enhance care quality, and the software designed for pediatric use provides essential tools to facilitate this process. For example, in 2022, the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based national statistics organization, reported that healthcare expenditure in the UK reached around $354.88 billion (£283 billion), reflecting a nominal increase of 0.7% from 2021. Thus, the growing adoption of EHRs is fueling demand for the pediatric software market.

The anticipated rise in birth rates is expected to drive the growth of the pediatric software market. Birth rate refers to the number of live births per 1,000 individuals in a specific population over a designated time frame. Pediatric software plays a crucial role in monitoring and analyzing birth rate data, which enhances neonatal care and overall population health outcomes. For example, in 2024, Niger is projected to have the highest birth rate globally, with 46.6 births per 1,000 people. This consistently high fertility rate significantly contributes to the country's population growth. Thus, the increasing birth rate is a key factor propelling the pediatric software market.

Leading companies in the pediatric software market are prioritizing the development of innovative software solutions, such as digital care coordination software, designed for pediatric retinal screening. Digital care coordination software streamlines healthcare service coordination, scheduling, documentation, billing, and transfer processes. For instance, NeoLight, a U.S.-based medical device company, introduced ROPCheck.com in November 2022, strengthening its position in pediatric ophthalmology with risk management software for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). This digital care coordination platform facilitates seamless coordination across neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), specialists, and caregivers, enhancing the detection and monitoring of ROP.

Innovative digital interfaces, such as pediatric wellness dashboards, are a focus for major companies in the pediatric software market to improve parental monitoring. A pediatric wellness dashboard, typically in the form of an app or software, allows parents to monitor various aspects of their child's health. For example, in 2022, Miku Care, a U.S.-based tech company, launched Care+, a pediatric wellness dashboard accompanying the Miku Pro Smart Baby Monitor. Care+ provides trend notifications, breathing and sleep trend analysis, expert articles, and a daily tracker, offering parents valuable insights into their child's well-being.

In June 2022, Oracle Corporation, a U.S.-based computer technology corporation, acquired Cerner Corporation for $28.3 billion. This strategic acquisition is anticipated to strengthen capabilities in transforming healthcare delivery by providing medical professionals with enhanced information access. Oracle aims to expand its digital tools portfolio to improve patient privacy and outcomes. Cerner Corporation, the acquired entity, is a U.S.-based provider of information technology services, devices, and integrated electronic health records for children.
