Accenture has released new research that estimates that U.S. funding for on-demand healthcare companies – those providing location-based offerings with near-real-time and 24/7 services – will quadruple from over $200 million in 2014 to $1 billion by the end of 2017.

They note that "since 2000, the top 230 on-demand companies have raised more than $12.5 billion, distributed across six main sectors: auto and transportation (76 percent); food and drink (10 percent); health (6 percent); household chores (3 percent); logistics (3 percent); and professional services (2 percent). Excluding the transportation industry, healthcare is the fastest growing on-demand sector, representing one-fifth of total U.S. funding."

Here's their breakdown of funding from 2010 to 2015 for on-demand healthcare segments:
1. Primary Care $639M
2. Wellness $21M
3. Behavioral $19M
4. Specialty Care $15M
5. Consumables $12M
