This year’s Policy Address stated that, to address the challenges brought by an aging population, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, and pressure on healthcare resources, the Government would deepen healthcare system reform, including strengthening primary healthcare. The government is also promoting the development of AI+, empowering governance and industries with AI to enhance people’s livelihood. Healthcare is a significant use case for AI, while AI health technology investments are highly favored by the market. International research indicates that preventive healthcare projects have a faster valuation growth than conventional medical care.

Artificial intelligence is transforming how we approach healthcare, using data-driven insights and personalized solutions to empower people to proactively manage their well-being in daily life.

The concept of self-health management is becoming increasingly prevalent, with more citizens showing greater interest in managing and utilizing their own health data. The eHealth Consortium is pleased to see the Government and industry actively driving innovation to empower proactive self-health management and advance a healthier community. We firmly believe that the integration of AI and medical technology will be a key trend for future development.”
