Saudi Arabia hospital beds market to reach $97.9m by 2029

Thanks to the country’s medical tourism efforts.

The Saudi Arabia hospital beds market is projected to grow to $97.9m by 2029 at a compound annual growth rate of 5.89%, said Research and Markets.

The sector’s growth is attributed to the country’s medical tourism efforts, increasing the demand for high-quality beds particularly in private healthcare facilities.

“The pandemic highlighted the importance of having a robust healthcare infrastructure, including an adequate supply of hospital beds, to handle healthcare emergencies,” the report said.

Meanwhile, the market is driven by an ageing population and the integration of technologies such as electronic adjustment features and monitoring systems.

“The need for specialised care units in hospitals, including intensive care units, neonatal intensive care units, and critical care units, requires specialised hospital beds tailored to the needs of patients in these units,” it added.
