Abstract:
The World Health Organization (WHO) released the global strategy report on digital health (2020-2025) in Geneva in 2019, which established the priority of the digital health strategy and formulated strategic objectives, guiding principles, action framework and implementation plans to promote the development of global digital health, and to achieve universal health coverage and the health-related sustainable development goals. Despite China's rapid development in the field of digital health, there is still a big gap between the realization of the goal of digital health. Therefore, it is urgent to grasp the major historical opportunity and step into a new era of digital health with the support of digital technology platform.
