The U.S. ambulatory EHR market is projected to rise from USD 5.49 billion in 2024 to USD 7.60 billion by 2030, growing at a 5.57% CAGR. This growth is fueled by the expansion of outpatient care, regulatory pressures, and the push for greater efficiency, driving a shift toward cloud-based solutions. Leading examples like St. Joseph’s/Candler and York Primary Care showcase how AI and decision-support tools are advancing patient care through effective EHR adoption.
Dublin, July 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ResearchAndMarkets.com has added the report “U.S. Ambulatory EHR Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis by Product (Web/Cloud-based EHR, On-premise EHR), Functionality (Practice Management, Patient Management), Practice Size, with Growth Forecasts, 2025-2030” to its offerings.
Valued at USD 5.49 billion in 2024, the U.S. ambulatory EHR market is expected to grow to USD 7.60 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.57%. This growth is driven by a shift toward outpatient care, increasing regulatory requirements, and the need for greater operational efficiency and cost savings.
Factors such as lower treatment costs, patient preference for same-day discharge, and advances in minimally invasive procedures are driving the shift toward outpatient care models. Ambulatory providers—including urgent care centers, ASCs, and specialty clinics—need robust digital tools to efficiently handle high patient volumes and quick turnaround times.
Additionally, strict data privacy and security regulations, along with the growing focus on value-based care, are pushing the adoption of systems that ensure compliance and enable detailed clinical performance reporting. Electronic health record (EHR) systems help ambulatory practices meet these demands, further boosting market adoption. For example, in November 2023, Savannah’s St. Joseph’s/Candler Health System deployed MEDITECH’s Expanse Ambulatory platform across more than 100 primary and specialty care providers, establishing a unified, cloud-based EHR system.
Additionally, built-in decision-support tools improve diagnostic accuracy by offering clinicians timely alerts on medication interactions, clinical guidelines, and evidence-based recommendations. These capabilities enable healthcare providers to make well-informed decisions, ensuring care that is high-quality, safe, and effective. For example, in October 2024, York Primary Care, an internal medicine practice in Maine, adopted eClinicalWorks V12, an AI-powered EHR. The system automates document recognition and routes 40-50 daily faxes directly to patient records, saving the practice over an hour each day.
