Increasing Spending on Healthcare-Related Services Fuels North America Helicopter Emergency Medical Services Market

The healthcare sector is growing rapidly owing to its growing coverage, improved services, and rising expenditure by public and private players. In addition, with the increasing awareness and focus on well-being and health-related concerns, the majority of the population is increasing their spending on healthcare-related services. Rising household income and increasing awareness about health and wellness have resulted in a growing demand for medical and health care services, including better treatment facilities, multi-specialty hospitals, advanced medical equipment and devices, and patient pick-up and drop services using helicopter ambulance services. Patients are now focusing more on premium healthcare facilities in terms of transportation and overall services. Customers in higher income groups put more emphasis on faster pick-up facilities in times of emergency and opt for air ambulance facilities offered by hospitals or independent trauma care centers. For instance, the US has one of the highest costs of healthcare in the world. In 2022, US healthcare spending reached ~US$ 4.5 trillion, which averages to ~US$ 13,493 per person. According to a study published by the American Medical Association, in 2021, the majority of the population was spending on private health insurance policies, which accounted for almost 28.5% of the overall healthcare expenditure. High-range healthcare policies cover all the client's expenses and allow patients to opt for premium services, including emergency helicopter ambulance services. The growing demand for emergency helicopter services among customers positively impacts the overall helicopter emergency medical services market.

Thus, the increasing spending on premium healthcare services and facilities for fast recovery and immediate healthcare support is acting as a major driving factor for the helicopter emergency medical services market.
