Better enjoyment of digital healthcare dividends

2023-07-04

The global healthcare industry is entering the era of digital healthcare. In the early stages, digital healthcare mainly involved data analysis, electronic healthcare, and mobile healthcare technology. More than 100 years ago, clinics in the United States established personal medical records for patients to search for medical records. Since the 1940s, statistical methods have been widely used in medical diagnosis, and many universities have established medical laboratories for clinical data analysis. After entering the 1970s, AI intelligence emerged in the fields of drug production and medical services. After 2000, AI medical imaging technology entered clinical practice, and robots participated in surgical treatment. In the past decade, with the popularity of the Internet and mobile terminals, telemedicine in various countries has developed rapidly, especially during the COVID-19 epidemic, the global online diagnosis and treatment services have exploded. According to the division method of the Stanford Digital Medical Center in the United States, digital medical technology is divided into five categories: first, AI intelligence, namely machine learning and algorithms. For example, computer medical imaging, Natural language processing of medical records, and the application of AI in diagnosis and treatment and prescription drugs. The second is the health management IT system, which mainly refers to electronic medical records, including the registration of customer health information and data flow management. It can provide automated data support for medical institutions and provide internet solutions and cloud services for remote healthcare. The third is remote medical and web app applications, including platform online services, cloud support software, and social media. The fourth is the application of new clinical treatment models, including remote surgery and patient remote monitoring. The fifth is wearable devices, such as new mobile sensing devices such as smart bracelets, electrocardiogram monitoring, and virtual headphones. In addition, the application of digital technology in the fields of Genetic recombination and biomedicine has also made rapid progress, and digital medicine has become an emerging industry in the global economic growth. According to statistics, the revenue of the global digital healthcare market in 2022 is $210 billion, and it is expected that the annual growth rate will reach as high as 18% in the future. North America is the most developed region in the digital healthcare market, leading the world in areas such as telemedicine and digital device production. For example, Teladoc Corporation in the United States is a large internet medical service provider with nearly 100 million online platform customers, providing integrated services such as remote diagnosis and treatment, consultation, and drug delivery. Canada is promoting a national electronic health record system, establishing a unified format for personal electronic records, and promoting nationwide data sharing. Europe is the second largest market in the world. In the United Kingdom, the national health service system has implemented the electronic medical record system. Residents can get appointments, medical advice, health monitoring and other services through mobile APP, and can also receive Electronic prescribing from doctors through mobile phones or email. After the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, the European Commission fully recognized the importance of implementing digital medicine, and proposed an investment plan of 5.1 billion euros in 2021 for cross-border digital medical collaboration. The Asia Pacific region is an emerging market, and with the deepening of aging and the rise of the digital economy, investment in the healthcare sector has increased significantly in recent years. China and India are the two countries with the fastest development of digital healthcare. Looking ahead, the information technology revolution centered on artificial intelligence will further lead the huge changes in the healthcare industry: through the internet
