Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare Market Forecasts Growth from $36.67B (2026) to $194.79B by 2031, Profiling Philips, Microsoft, Siemens Healthineers & NVIDIA
Dublin, Oct. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare Market by Function, Tools, End User - Global Forecast to 2031" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare market is projected to grow from USD 36.67 billion in 2026 to USD 194.79 billion by 2031, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 39.7% during the forecast period. Market expansion is being supported by increasing adoption of AI solutions across hospitals, clinics and health systems to improve clinical efficiency, reduce physician burnout, strengthen diagnostic accuracy and enhance patient outcomes.
Recent healthcare industry developments demonstrate the accelerating deployment of clinical AI. In 2025, Cleveland Clinic introduced Ambience Healthcare's AI documentation platform across its US outpatient network after evaluating the technology in more than 80 specialties. More than 4,000 clinicians adopted the platform within 15 weeks, enabling documentation for over one million patient encounters.
In January 2026, Aultman Health System deployed Nabla's ambient AI solution across hundreds of clinicians through an integration with Oracle Cerner. AtlantiCare also reported a 50% reduction in documentation time following implementation of Oracle Health's Clinical AI Agent. Continued real-world adoption across healthcare delivery settings is expected to reinforce AI's role in clinical documentation, decision support, patient management and operational optimization.
Cloud-Based AI Deployment Leads Market Growth
By deployment model, the AI in healthcare market is segmented into on-premises, cloud-based and hybrid solutions. Cloud-based models hold the largest market share and are expected to register the highest growth during the forecast period. Their expansion is supported by scalability, cost-effectiveness, remote accessibility, secure data storage, rapid deployment and real-time analytics.
Cloud platforms facilitate data processing, collaboration and integration across healthcare providers and payers. Growing telehealth adoption and continued advancements in healthcare IT infrastructure are further increasing demand for cloud-based healthcare AI solutions.
Hospitals and Clinics Account for the Largest End-User Share
The hospitals and clinics segment dominated the artificial intelligence in healthcare market for healthcare providers in 2025. Other end-user categories include ambulatory surgical centers, home healthcare agencies and assisted living facilities, diagnostic and imaging centers, pharmacies, and other healthcare providers.
Growth within hospitals and clinics is associated with rising demand for personalized medicine, precise diagnostics, surgical planning, minimally invasive procedures and interoperability with existing systems. AI-powered healthcare solutions support diagnostic accuracy, administrative automation, real-time decision-making, patient outcome prediction, remote monitoring and resource optimization. These capabilities can also reduce unnecessary treatments and associated costs.
Asia Pacific to Register the Highest Regional Growth
The market analysis covers North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to record the fastest growth, driven by rapid healthcare digitalization, expanding electronic health record adoption, increasing AI investment and government support for digital health initiatives.
China, India, Singapore, Japan and South Korea are integrating AI into diagnostics, medical imaging, clinical decision support and hospital workflow management. In February 2026, India launched its Strategy for AI in Healthcare (SAHI), establishing a national framework for responsible, large-scale AI adoption across the healthcare ecosystem.
Singapore's Ministry of Health is scaling generative AI for clinical documentation and AI-powered imaging across the public healthcare system. Ng Teng Fong General Hospital and other regional providers are also deploying AI-enabled tools to improve patient management and care delivery.
