Besides this, the growth and development of cutting-edge technology in the country, such as high-speed internet connections and innovative medical devices, facilitate remote consultations and monitoring, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Moreover, the implementation of various initiatives by the Japanese government to encourage the adoption of digital health solutions is favoring the market growth. Furthermore, various financial incentives, streamlined licensing procedures, and other measures to promote the adoption of telemedicine services are further propelling the market growth. Apart from this, the increasing adoption of telemedicine during the COVID-19 pandemic as a means to provide healthcare services to the masses while minimizing the risk of infection is providing a considerable boost to the market growth.
