The anticipated rise in the incidence rate of lifestyle-related and chronic diseases is poised to propel the growth of the healthcare gamification market in the foreseeable future.

For example, data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, an Australia-based government agency, highlights a notable increase in the percentage of people with at least one chronic condition in Australia, rising from 46.6% (11.6 million) to 49.9% (12.6 million) between 2020-21 and 2021-22. Consequently, the escalating incidence rate of lifestyle-related and chronic diseases is serving as a key driver for the growth of the healthcare gamification market.
