The Global Medical Office Buildings Market size is expected to reach $62.6 billion by 2031, rising at a market growth of 6.3% CAGR during the forecast period.
The aging population in Europe has contributed to the growing need for healthcare services, including physician offices, diagnostic centers, and outpatient care facilities housed in MOBs. Consequently, the Europe region would acquire nearly 30% of the total market share by 2031. Demand for MOBs is fuelled by the region's robust emphasis on universal healthcare coverage and a high standard of healthcare delivery. Overall, the market in Europe is characterized by a well-developed healthcare infrastructure and increasing investments in healthcare.
The rise in global healthcare expenditure is driving a significant expansion in healthcare infrastructure, notably in the proliferation of MOBs. Furthermore, the increasing demand for specialized healthcare services and the advancements in medical technology are the primary factors driving the necessity for well-equipped MOBs. Hence, increasing healthcare expenditure will aid in the growth of the market. Additionally, Healthcare providers increasingly invest in state-of-the-art facilities that accommodate advanced medical equipment and support telemedicine and other digital healthcare services. Moreover, MOBs are designed to support the growing telemedicine and digital healthcare services trend. Thus, technological advancements in healthcare drive the need for modern, well-equipped facilities like MOBs.
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a market slowdown as healthcare providers prioritized the management of the immediate crisis, which forced the postponement or cancellation of elective procedures. On the other hand, the pandemic also highlighted the importance of well-equipped healthcare facilities, including MOBs, in supporting the delivery of healthcare services. Additionally, the pandemic underscored the importance of resilient healthcare infrastructure, including MOBs, in ensuring continuity of care during health crises. Hence, the pandemic had an overall positive impact on the market.
However, Significant obstacles confront developers and investors in the healthcare real estate sector as a result of the increasing costs. The cost of medical equipment is also a significant consideration for developers of MOBs. Healthcare facilities require expensive medical equipment to provide quality care to patients. Hence, these factors may hamper the growth of the market.
