US Healthcare Outsourcing Grows by 150 Percent Yearly

Outsourcing in the healthcare sector has come a long way -- from low-end claims processing and medical transcription to medical analytics and clinical processing. The U.S. healthcare industry outsources to India not only its medical billing and insurance processes, but also data analysis and software development. Though, at present, only a small percentage of such work is being outsourced to India, medical services outsourcing from the United States has seen a compound annual growth rate of 150 percent in the last two years.
