The hardware segment accounted for largest share of the RTLS market for healthcare in 2017. The market share of the hardware segment is expected to decrease during the forecast period mainly because of the falling ASPs of tags and readers as the technology further matures. Although the price of hardware components of RTLS solutions is expected to decrease in the near future, the required volume of these hardware components would increase.

Hospitals and healthcare facilities are likely to continue to dominate the RTLS market for healthcare during the forecast period by accounting for a larger market share. Hospitals in the US and European countries have a high demand for RTLS solutions for enhancing their operations, optimizing resource utilization, and increasing profitability. RTLS solutions provide real-time information about the location of people and assets, which helps healthcare organizations in making faster decisions and improving their operational processes. Additionally, the rapid growth in IoT in the healthcare industry has led to the increased adoption of RTLS, thereby accelerating the growth of the market.

The market for UWB technology-based RTLS solutions is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The high precision and accuracy offered by UWB technology for tracking objects will be the major factor to drive the growth of the market for UWB technology-based RTLS solutions. The increasing adoption of UWB in the RTLS market for healthcare is primarily due to the advantages offered by solutions based on this technology, such as high precision, long battery life, high capacity, and fast update rates.

North America accounted for the largest share of the RTLS market for healthcare in 2017. North America is one of the largest contributors to the market owing to the presence of a large number of healthcare facilities in the region, especially in the US. The rapid adoption of RTLS solutions for several applications in the healthcare sector is also one of the major reasons for North America to capture the largest share of the RTLS market for healthcare.

The major challenge faced by RTLS vendors in the healthcare sector is designing RTLS solutions satisfying high accuracy, high range, and low power consumption requirements. System incompatibility and lack of uniform standards and interoperability is also another major challenge the market players are facing. Factors restraining the market growth include concerns regarding data security and privacy, unsatisfactory results and negative feedback from RTLS end users, and the high cost of acquisition and maintenance.
