Following are some statistics that highlight the growth of [healthcare data analytics](https://www.syntrixconsulting.com/healthcare-data-analytics) and BI:

- More than **[two-thirds](http://www.cdwnewsroom.com/analytics-in-healthcare-report/)** of healthcare decision makers consider analytics among their top three priorities.
- The BI and analytics market is forecast to grow to **[$20 billion](https://www.gartner.com/doc/3137220/report-highlight-market-trends-technology)** by 2019.
- The healthcare analytics global market is estimated to be worth **[$33.5 billion](http://www.iq4i.com/news/article/70)** by 2022.
- The BI and analytics software market is expected to grow at a **[12](https://www.forrester.com/report/Forrester+Research+World+Business+Intelligence+And+Analytics+Software+Forecast+2015+To+2020+Global/-/E-RES131054)** percent CAGR through 2020.
- In 2013, HIMSS Analytics found **[46.2](http://www.healthitoutcomes.com/doc/big-data-analytics-adoption-increases-since-0001)** percent of healthcare organizations were utilizing some form of clinical and BI solution in place, a number which increased to 52.1 percent in 2015.
- Fewer than **[half](http://www.healthcareitnews.com/news/providers-poised-ratchet-spending-clinical-and-business-intelligence-tools-himss-analytics-says)** of healthcare organizations utilize a clinical and BI tool for analytics. 
- Companies using analytics are **[five times more likely](https://www.betterbuys.com/bi/business-intelligence-stats/)** to make faster decisions.
- An estimated **[90](http://www.information-age.com/technology/information-management/123458913/gartners-business-intelligence-predictions)** percent of self-service BI projects fail due to inconsistencies.

Another trend that has arisen in healthcare is the utilization of big data. Used to improve patient quality of life by predicting epidemics, curing diseases and avoiding preventable deaths, it allows healthcare providers to determine which patients are at risk for certain types of diseases and give preventative care to combat it. Following are some statistics about the utilization of big data:

- The effective use of big data in healthcare could save the industry **[$300 million](http://www.evariant.com/blog/big-data-creates-big-improvements-in-healthcare)** per year. 

- Customer analytics (**[48](http://www.datameer.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/State_of_the_Industry.pdf)** percent), operational analytics (**[21](http://www.datameer.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/State_of_the_Industry.pdf)** percent) and fraud and compliance (**[21](http://www.datameer.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/State_of_the_Industry.pdf)** percent) are the top three use cases for big data.
