BlogsHealthcare in Saudi Arabia is undergoing a historic transformation, driven by Vision 2030’s Health Sector Transformation Program and showcased at the Global Health Exhibition 2025 in Riyadh. With investments in digital health, telemedicine, and artificial intelligence, Saudi Arabia is building a healthcare ecosystem that is smarter, more efficient, and more accessible than ever before
At the heart of Saudi Arabia’s healthcare reform is the Health Sector Transformation Program under Vision 2030.
Its main goals include:
This strategic shift is not just about modernization—it’s about redefining the patient journey from the moment of check-in to post-care follow-up.
The Global Health Exhibition 2025 (October 27–30, Riyadh) is a flagship event that aligns perfectly with Vision 2030. Under the theme “Invest in Health,” it brings together policymakers, healthcare providers, and technology innovators from around the world.
Key highlights include:
The 2024 edition alone generated over SAR 50 billion in healthcare deals—evidence of the Kingdom’s rising influence on the global stage.
One of the most exciting developments is the rapid growth of telehealth in Saudi Arabia. The market is expected to expand from USD 1.06 billion in 2024 to nearly USD 3.92 billion by 2030, with a 25% CAGR. This growth reflects the Kingdom’s vision of making healthcare more accessible, patient-centered, and digitally driven.
Through teleconsultation, patients gain the convenience of booking appointments online with just a few clicks, while also receiving expert consultations from specialists no matter where they are located. It enables quicker diagnoses and timely follow-ups without the need to visit hospitals, helping patients save valuable time and reduce costs by avoiding unnecessary travel and long waiting times.
For healthcare providers, teleconsultation is more than just a digital tool—it’s a powerful way to optimize operations and deliver better care:
By expanding the reach of healthcare services beyond physical walls, teleconsultation is helping Saudi Arabia achieve its Vision 2030 goal of equitable and efficient care for all citizens.
