The global palliative care market size was estimated to be USD 126.42 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 359.61 billion by 2034 with a CAGR of 9.97% during the forecast period 2024-2034. The rising prevalence of chronic diseases, growing awareness and education, government initiatives and policies, advancements in medical technology, and a shift in focus toward patient-centered care will drive the market growth.
The advantages of palliative care are becoming more well-known to medical professionals, patients, and their families. Education and advocacy initiatives help raise awareness of the value of early palliative care integration, which promotes the acceptance and implementation of this approach on a larger scale. For instance, in October 2023, Vitas Healthcare Corporation introduced Vitas PATH, a program that focuses on palliative treatment for heart failure patients.
By condition, the cancer segment accounted for the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global palliative care market in 2023 owing to the the increasing prevalence of various types of cancer, coupled with a growing recognition of the importance of comprehensive and supportive care for cancer patients. For instance, in April 2022, Kindred Healthcare and Signify Health partnered to adopt technology for remote patient monitoring of patients receiving palliative care. Additionally, the dementia segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing prevalence of dementia-related disorders, a rise in the aging population globally, and a growing understanding of the unique care needs associated with dementia.
By diagnostic group, the non-communicable diseases segment accounted for the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global palliative care market in 2023 owing to the escalating global burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including cardiovascular diseases, respiratory disorders, diabetes, and neurological conditions. For instance, in December 2022, Amedisys, Inc. worked with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center to create an integrated palliative care program for cancer patients. Additionally, the aging-related conditions segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing aging population worldwide and the subsequent rise in the prevalence of age-related conditions such as neurodegenerative disorders, frailty, and geriatric syndromes.

For instance, in August 2023 Hospice Compassus and ChenMed entered established a joint venture to provide palliative care services to ChenMed's primary care network. Additionally, the geriatric segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the rising global geriatric population and the associated increase in age-related health conditions, such as neurodegenerative diseases, frailty, and multiple chronic illnesses.

For instance, in June 2023, Sunrise Senior Living and VITAS Healthcare partnered to provide palliative care services within Sunrise homes, therefore increasing resident access. Additionally, the home-based segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing emphasis on patient-centered care, advancements in telehealth and remote monitoring technologies, and a growing preference for receiving palliative care services in the comfort of one's home.

Additionally, the Asia Pacific region is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing recognition of the importance of palliative care, a rapidly expanding aging population, and a rising prevalence of chronic diseases in the Asia Pacific region.
