Market Trends and Drivers

Technogical advancements have resulted in the creation of automated movement systems, which eliminate any caregivers assistance. These wheelchairs have easy maneuverability and can also be remote controlled. As a result, the demand for technical advancements in this equipment to improve comfort and safety is likely to create profitable opportunities for companies, resulting in the growth of the powered wheelchair market. Increasing burden of motor disabilities due to trauma, congenital diseases, and injuries is another leading cause for the demand of intelligent wheelchairs globally. Increasing life expectancy due to increased access to healthcare has led to an increased number of geriatric population. Elderly people have an increased risk of suffering from mobility issues. This can also be attributed to the rising demand for motorized wheelchair, especially in the developed countries.

Market Restraints and Challenges

The powered wheelchair market is expected to be restrained by the lack of reimbursement policies for powered wheelchair across several countries. The powered wheelchair is a class II medical device in the US, which requires a physicians prescription for reimbursement from Medicare. In Europe, the powered wheelchair is classified as a Class I medical device, which allows for reimbursement from national health insurance systems. However, in several countries, there is no specific classification for powered wheelchair, which limits the reimbursement for the device. The powered wheelchair market is also expected to be challenged by the high cost of the device. The powered wheelchair can cost up to $20,000, which is not covered by Medicare or most private insurance plans. In addition, the powered wheelchair requires regular maintenance and upkeep, which can add to the overall cost of ownership.

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the health of elderly in the UK. According to a survey conducted by the Age UK, it was observed that around 1.5 million people aged 65 and more suffered from difficulty in walking, which did not exist before the restrictions imposed for the pandemic. Additionally, around 23% of the geriatric population suffered from decrease in their abilities to perform daily activities since the lockdown. Old age brings its own array of diseases to a person such as motor disabilities, debilitating diseases, and decreased mental capacity and tends to hamper the quality of life amongst elderly. Powered wheelchair allows the elderly to move around indoors as well as outdoors easily, thereby improving the quality of their lives. As a result, the global market for electric wheelchairs is expected to grow due to a growth in the older population, further proving conducive for the market.
