U.K. Ambulatory Services Market Growth & Trends
The U.K. ambulatory services market value is estimated to reach USD 249.1 billion by 2030, based on the latest report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 9.30% from 2023 to 2030. The growing burden on hospitals in the U.K., the rising geriatric population, increasing healthcare expenditure, and the growth in government initiatives to promote ambulatory care are key factors driving the market.
More than 10 billion surgeries are performed in England every year. The increasing requirement for surgery is increasing the waiting time for patients in the hospital, resulting in an increasing preference for outpatient care. The adoption of technology & improving quality care has led to a high percentage of ophthalmic, orthopedic, and cosmetic surgeries being performed in ambulatory facilities. For Instance, as per Health at Glance 2021: OECD indicators, around 99.1% of cataract surgeries performed in the U.K. were ambulatory cases.
Outpatient facilities in the U.K. are well-regulated. The Care Quality Commission (CQC) licenses healthcare providers monitors & supervises them. This institution establishes the legal standards for providers such as hospitals, ambulatory care centers, and offices. All healthcare providers (including organizations, specialty cooperatives, and individual providers) are required to register with the CQC, and their performance should be reviewed in accordance with the national quality standards. The establishment of proper regulations ensures quality care at ambulatory facilities, thereby increasing the market demand. However, for the new players, the high-quality regulations are making it difficult for them to sustain. The operation costs for the market players have increased overall as a result of regulatory requirements.

U.K. Ambulatory Services Market Report Highlights
- The primary care offices held the largest market share in 2021, as they are the first contact point between healthcare professionals and patients. Primary care is delivered in the form of in-person clinic consultations and home visits for patients unable to travel. Home visits are witnessing high demand post the COVID-19 pandemic.
- During the forecast period, the surgical specialty segment is estimated to witness the fastest growth as hospitals are starting separate same-day surgery centers. Furthermore, due to the reimbursement advantages for ambulatory surgical centers, the number of hospital acquisitions of ambulatory surgical centers is increasing.
- The adoption of ambulatory Electronic Health Records(EHRs) and telehealth consultations is expected to decrease the treatment time for patients.
- Hospital chains are collaborating with physicians for initiating outpatient services to reduce the burden of cost and increase their revenue. The hospitals are starting their own ambulatory unit, for competing against the freestanding service providers.
- In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the government’s focus on outpatient care has increased. The British Association for Ambulatory Emergency Care (BAAEC) introduced guidelines for emergency care. The BAAEC suggested providing ambulatory care services closely located to emergency departments and their initiatives are aimed at maximizing the patient flow to ambulatory care to reduce the burden on hospitals
