The increasing incidence rate of lifestyle related diseases and chronic diseases is expected to drive the demand for better health management by patients and healthcare providers. In addition, the rising adoption of smartphones and increasing internet penetration worldwide are driving the demand for healthcare gamification. According to Groupe Speciale Mobile Association, the total number of mobile subscribers is expected to rise to 5.7 billion by 2025 and internet penetration will increase by 60% around the globe. Healthcare gamification shows wide range of applications in the management of chronic diseases. Gamification can motivate patients to administer medication as prescribed by the physician. According to National Diabetes Statistics Report published by CDC, over 35 million people had diabetes in 2022. According to WHO, patients suffering from chronic diseases are anticipated to increase from 39% in 2008 to 51% by 2030. Furthermore, chronic illnesses are responsible for over 85% of the total deaths in the U.S. Hence, the increasing prevalence of disorders such as diabetes and obesity is likely to drive the need for gamification.

The COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted the global healthcare gamification market pertaining to the increased penetration of digital health solutions. The pandemic led to a surge in demand for healthcare apps for at-home use. The healthcare providers and patients turned to technology to stay connected and engage remotely. COVID-19 affected people's mental health, thereby increasing the need for healthcare mobile applications to manage mental and physical health at home. Healthcare gamification has emerged as an effective way to address this issue. Healthcare apps show wide application in promoting mindfulness, relaxation, and other therapeutic activities that can help reduce stress and anxiety.
