Intellectual Property Landscape Report
Connected Health: Telemedicine Patent Landscape

James H. Moeller - Moeller Ventures LLC - https://www.moellerventures.com/
Date: 2020-03-09

Overview:

The principle focus of this report is to create a broad patent landscape around the telemedicine / telehealth technology domain. The broad domain collection for this report was created by simply matching the keywords “telemedicine” or "telehealth" in the abstract, description or claims of the patent documents available in Google’s BigQuery data warehouse, in the “patents-public-data:patents” dataset, “publications” table. Either “telemedicine" or "telehealth" must be found in a document section in order to be included in the domain collection. The Google patent dataset used in this analysis is current with patent documents filed through December 5, 2019. The resulting domain collection consists of 4,923 patent applications, of which 2,012 have been granted as patents.

The report sections below consist of a results summary, a market intelligence brief, profiles of the notable top 25 corporate assignees, as well as tables presenting the details of the patent document landscape. These patent document landscape tables cover a profiling of the domain collection (Exhibits 1, 2, 3, 4), tabulations of inventors (Exhibit 5) and assignees (Exhibit 6), an analysis of the most referenced citations (Exhibits 7, 8), and a break-down of the technology classification CPC group codes (Exhibits 9,10,11). All the tables in this report (as available on https://www.moellerventures.com/) are interactive and can be sorted and searched via the column headings and available keyword search boxes with each table.

Results Summary:

  • The telemedicine intellectual property profiled in this report represents initiatives of companies that span a variety of technologies such as wireless communications, digital image processing, biometric sensing systems, software, remote diagnostics, and even telemedicine delivery platforms. This variety shouldn’t be surprising since telemedicine is a complex combination of all these technologies to deliver healthcare.
  • In general, this landscape tends to focus more on the core technologies (communications, image processing, etc.) than the platform delivery technologies. So, there is a larger representation of IP from companies like Qualcomm, Samsung and Sony, than there is from telemedicine platform providers such as Teladoc Health, Doctor on Demand, American Well, or MDLive. That said, there is a set of larger diversified technology companies that crossover between core technology and platforms, such as Philips, Medtronic, and GE Health.
  • From a market perspective telemedicine may finally be able to meet growth projections that have eluded the segment for over a decade. A combination of more convenient and capable solutions combined with significantly improving reimbursement policies from insurance companies have enabled telemedicine to be positioned as a mainstream healthcare approach.
  • In addition, the very recent challenges with the COVID-19 coronavirus have put a spotlight on the benefits of telehealth in situations where a highly contagious infection poses risks for even showing up at a hospital or clinic.
  • This will be an interesting market to watch over the coming years as competitors, like Amazon and Apple, from outside the classical healthcare markets, provide solutions that intersect with telemedicine.
  • The timeline of patent filings for telemedicine (Exhibit 4) seems to consist of steadily increasing waves of activity, with the most recent surge of patent applications file between Q2 of 2015 and Q4 of 2018. The peak of the filing surge is approximately Q2 of 2017.
  • Qualcomm leads the assignees list (Exhibit 6) quite notably with 167 patent applications, 100 more than even the second ranked assignee. This exemplifies the extent to which communications and, in particular wireless communications, has become a key element of telemedicine. Broadband wired communications, capable of delivering telemedicine, has been available for quite some time from a variety of companies. But it’s important to remember that healthcare is a very individualize and personalized service, very similar to how wireless enables personalized communications. The emergence of 5G wireless technologies, where Qualcomm has a notable IP position, will also be key to telemedicine. 5G will enable notably higher data rates that will, in turn, enable additional telemedicine capabilities such as high-quality mobile video communications and remote diagnostics imaging (see Butterfly Network Inc. below).
  • Interestingly the #2 ranked assignee in the landscape is Osterhout Group Inc. Osterhout was an early startup competitor in augmented reality (AR) technology. The company filed many patents that noted telemedicine or telehealth applications. Unfortunately, the application of augmented reality to telemedicine seemed to be too much of a stretch for the healthcare market or was at least too much ahead of its appropriate market timing. Healthcare is fundamentally a rather conservative adopter of new technology due to the potential life and death consequences. Osterhout Group was liquidated in 2018 and the IP was sold to Microsoft and others.
  • Other notable assignees in the top 10 include Philips Electronics (#5), Samsung (#7), and Medtronic (#10). 
  • Beyond the top 10 assignees the assignment numbers level off in the 20s and 30s through the top 25 and tend to indicate more focused IP positions. For example, Hyperfine Research Inc. (#17 assignee) is a startup company in Connecticut that has developed a portable magnetic resonant imaging machine and an IP position around that technology. InTouch Health (#23 assignee) is another notable private company that has focused telemedicine platform technology and is in the process of being acquired by Teladoc Health. Butterfly Network (#26 assignee) is another interesting startup that has developed a handheld ultrasound imaging device that connects directly to computers, laptops, tablets, and smartphones.
  • The notable citations of the domain collection are very distributed so even the #1 ranked citations assignee (Micron Technology) only has five patent documents that make the list. Micron’s citations consist of lower level technology innovations that pertain mostly to digital imaging processing.
  • #2 on the citations list is First Opinion Corporate, again with only four citations. First Opinion went out of business over a decade ago but had established an IP position in computerized diagnostics and treatment advise technology.
  • The CPC code technology classifications (Exhibit 9) for telemedicine are, as expected, very diverse. However, this is a case where the CPC Code Heatmap Timeline (Exhibit 11) shows some interesting trends. The heatmap shows the relatively recent surge in patent filings from 2015 through 2018 across the main telemedicine CPC codes of A61B, G06F, and G16H. However, it also shows the emergence of communications (H04L) and wireless communications (H04W) starting mid-2016 and continuing through mid-2019, reflecting the importance of those as enabling technologies to telemedicine.

Market Intelligence:

The telemedicine market seems to have historically been one of those perpetually emerging segments. Since the dawn of video conferencing people have been predicting that telemedicine would become more popular. However, the market generally didn’t fulfill those predictions for a variety of reasons. But that has changed in recent years and the driving forces seem to be a combination of many factors such as technological solutions, improved capabilities, reimbursement allowances, cost efficiencies, market necessity, and even attitude changes on the part of patients and medical staff.

From a technology perspective telemedicine and the broader connected medicine markets are riding on the Internet-of-Things (IoT) macro application trend, as well as the availability of connected smart devices (e.g. tablets, smartphones, and smart watches). This connectivity is enabling broader and more capable options for medical staff to communicate to and interact with patients in ways that are more convenient and cost effective. It’s not just a phone call anymore, but rather can include video conferencing to mobile phones and even remote monitoring of patient health and medical attributes via wearable devices. This ability for healthcare professionals to stay better connected to patients can, in turn, enable the delivery of proactive preventative heath care that’s more convenient for the patient and cost effective for healthcare providers and insurers. Telemedicine and connected medicine can be key factors that change the continually increasing cost trajectory of our healthcare system while improving patient access. One other wildcard to the technology portion of telemedicine is the prospect of new competitors from outside of the traditional medtech fields. There’s growing focus on companies like Apple and Amazon to potentially enter the telemedicine and connected health markets by leveraging expertise in their respective technology domains into new solutions and new business models for healthcare.

Telemedicine services have grown rapidly in recent years, particularly with how the services are reimbursed via health insurance plans. In the 2019 Kaiser Family Foundation Employer Health Benefits Survey 69% of employer plans covered some type of telemedicine services. That’s up from 39% in just three years since the 2016 survey. In addition, the recent challenges of confronting the coronavirus have put a spotlight on how healthcare is delivered and what procedures are in place to deal with a pandemic associated with a highly contagious infection where there are risks in even showing up at a hospital or clinic. Telemedicine provides a good solution.

Finally, most recent industry analysis is estimating the cumulative annual growth rate (CAGR) of the global telemedicine market to be 20% or better over the next five years and potentially be a $130 million to $180 million market opportunity in the 2025-2026 timeframe.

Exhibit 8: Domain Collection: Top Patent Document Citations, Sorted by Assignee
  • This tables shows the same information as the previous Top Patent Document Citations table except this table is sorted by assignee and is designed to identify the assignees with most significant intellectual property position across the domain.
  • Like the previous table, the “Number of Patent Apps” column indicates the number of times the citation was referenced across all applications in the domain collection.
  • The “Tot Num of Patent Apps” column indicates the total number of patent application citations on an assignee basis. This number is computed by examining the citations per assignee and then summing the number of times those citations are referenced across the domain collection. The default sorting of the table ranks assignees in descending order of “Tot Num of Patent Apps” and thus provides an indication of the assignee’s intellectual property position in the domain area.
  • Click on column headings to sort.
  • Use the Search box to search on any column.
