Description
The specialty hospitals market in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) was valued at approximately US$ 10,232.29 million in 2023 and is projected to grow significantly, reaching around US$ 23,122.57 million by 2031. This growth represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.7% from 2023 to 2031. The expansion of super specialty and multi-specialty hospitals is a key driver of this market growth.
Multi-specialty hospitals are defined as healthcare facilities that provide a range of treatments across various medical specialties, typically offering more than two specialized services. In contrast, super specialty hospitals focus on specific disorders and provide advanced subspecialty care. Physicians in multi-specialty hospitals often hold degrees in general medicine (MD), dermatology (MD), and surgery (MS), while super specialty hospitals employ super specialists with advanced qualifications such as DM (Doctor of Medicine) in neurology or McH (Master of Chirurgiae) in urology.
Multi-specialty hospitals serve as comprehensive healthcare providers, catering to patients of all ages, from newborns to the elderly. They emphasize prevention, disease management, and effective clinical interventions. These hospitals typically offer a variety of treatments, including general surgery, ENT (ear, nose, and throat) services, and radiology. Patients benefit from the convenience of receiving multiple consultations and tests under one roof, particularly when dealing with general health issues.
On the other hand, super specialty hospitals provide a wide array of specialized treatments and procedures, including neurosurgery, vascular and endovascular surgery, nephrology, pulmonology, laparoscopic and gastrointestinal surgery, critical care, ophthalmology, cardiothoracic surgery, and gastroenterology. These facilities aim to deliver comprehensive healthcare services, minimizing patient hassle and ensuring thorough care. Additionally, they often engage in healthcare management and research, further enhancing their service offerings.
The choice between multi-specialty and super specialty hospitals largely depends on the specific medical needs of the patient. Both types of hospitals are committed to delivering high-quality care and promoting health and wellness at affordable costs, making them increasingly attractive as healthcare demands rise. As a result, the market for super specialty and multi-specialty hospitals is expected to experience substantial growth opportunities in the coming years.
In Saudi Arabia, the specialty hospitals market is witnessing rapid expansion, driven by government initiatives aimed at enhancing the healthcare sector as part of the Vision 2030 plan. The Saudi government is making significant investments in specialty hospitals and healthcare infrastructure, with a goal to improve medical tourism and reduce the need for citizens to seek healthcare abroad. Under Vision 2030, the government plans to invest over US$ 65 billion to develop the healthcare infrastructure, restructure and privatize health services and insurance, establish 21 health clusters nationwide, and enhance e-health services, as reported by The International Trade Administration.
The government also aims to increase the private sector's share of healthcare from 40% to 65% by 2030, which will involve the privatization of approximately 2,300 primary health centers and 290 hospitals. This shift presents significant business opportunities for American companies and other foreign entities looking to enter Saudi Arabia's growing healthcare market. The establishment of new specialty hospitals and medical cities, such as the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre and King Abdullah Medical City, is expanding access to specialized healthcare services across the country. Furthermore, collaborations between government organizations and international healthcare providers are introducing advanced medical knowledge and services to Saudi Arabia.
