As is the case with other health services within the broader healthcare sector, demographic variables significantly influence the industry’s performance. Australia's ageing population is boosting demand for several healthcare services, especially those associated with treating chronic illnesses and lifestyle-related morbidity. At the other end of the age spectrum, Australia's birth rate, which is now recovering following a fall during the COVID-19 pandemic, influences demand for midwifery services and well-baby clinics. Societal changes associated with an ageing population and a growing acceptance of complementary and alternative health products and services are also driving growth.
Industry revenue has grown at a CAGR of 2.1 % over the past five years, to reach an estimated $16.9bn in 2024.
Market size is projected to grow over the next five years.
