Medical Device Connectivity Market - Regional Analysis
North America Market Insights
North America is the dominant region in the medical device connectivity market and is expected to hold the market share of 42.3% at a CAGR of 10.8% by 2034. The region is driven by the strong government policy, widespread EHR adoption, and advanced healthcare infrastructure. The region will experience a sustained growth in the forecast period from 2025 to 2034. Federal investments in healthcare interoperability through CMS and Medicare rules have put the United States ahead, while digital health frameworks and federal-provincial cooperation have strengthened uptake in Canada. Further, the increased Medicaid and Medicare support in rising chronic illness prevalence demand real-time monitoring systems for better health care outcomes.
The U.S. market is still on the move, fueled by government investment in healthcare IT and outreach of EHR integration policies. The CDC report indicates that more than 85.4% of U.S. hospitals employ connected medical devices, but just 28.2% of small hospitals have reached complete interoperability because of the cost hurdle. The NIH and AHRQ together funded nearly USD 5.4 billion in health tech innovation in 2023, such as remote monitoring and device integration. Medicaid reported USD 1.6 billion in 2024 towards Medical Device Connectivity treatments, with new reimbursement codes improving access by 10.3%. In contrast, Medicare spending increased by 15.5% from 2020 to 2024, totaling USD 800.5 million, owing to increased device access for geriatric and chronic disease patients. Even with infrastructure lacunas in rural areas, more extensive EHR policies and payer alignment have established the U.S. as the leading market for Medical Device Connectivity.

Asia Pacific Market Insights
The APAC is the fastest-growing region in the medical device connectivity market and is poised to hold the market revenue share of 21.2% at a CAGR of 11.6% by 2034. The region has a strong growth and is fueled by increasing chronic disease burden, rapid healthcare digitization, and government investment in health tech infrastructure. Leading economies such as China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Malaysia are spearheading this shift by incorporating cloud-based data sharing platforms, electronic health record (EHR) systems, and real-time monitoring into clinical procedures. Further according to government releases, China and Japan together lead the market by holding 60.2% overall share in the region due to strong and expansive hospital networks. The region has strong telehealth, surging the demand for interoperable devices and cloud-based connectivity platforms.
China is the leading nation and is expected to have a market share of 9.5% by 2034. As per the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA), government expenditure in China on Medical Device Connectivity increased by 15.7% over the past five years, driven by hospital infrastructure enhancements and local health tech manufacturing. In 2023, more than 1.9 million patients received benefit from connected care technology. The Healthy China 2030 plan helped market to drive this trend by focusing on telemedicine and integration of rural hospitals with devices. Both domestic manufacturing and interoperable device certification are encouraged by the policies of the country, facilitating greater public access and less dependency on imports.
