Objective To analyze the focus and shortcomings of provincial-level digitalization policies for Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM),and to provide references for improving relevant policies.Methods A three-dimensional analytical framework—comprising"digitalization policy coverage-economic level-TCM development level"was constructed to quantitatively analyze provincial TCM digitalization policy documents issued over the past five years.Results A total of 750 policy items were extracted.Among them,digital applications accounted for the largest proportion(58.13%),while digital governance(26.53%)and digital infrastructure(15.33%)were relatively less emphasized.Two-dimensional analysis revealed that 48.4%of provinces had both low economic levels and low digital policy coverage,while 45.2%had both low TCM development levels and low policy coverage.Multiple linear regression result showed a positive association between digitalization policies coverage and TCM development level,with no significant correlation to economic level.Conclusion Most provincial TCM digitalization policies prioritize application while neglecting governance and infrastructure.There is a need to strengthen talent development and standard system construction,The extent of policy coverage is closely related to the level of TCM development,indicating the need to enhance top-level policy design,Provincial policies vary in focus and can be categorized into three types:industry-driven,technology-driven,and demand-driven.

Objective:To analyze the current status and deficiencies of family bed service policies in China, for references for promoting the construction of China′s home health service system.Methods:Key words such as " family bed" and " home health services" were used to search for relevant policies(from January 1, 1984 to May 31, 2023)in Peking University Treasure Database, the State Council′s policy document repository, and official websites of health administrative departments at all levels. NVivo 11.0 software was utilized for a three-level coding process to establish a policy text analysis framework and to identify deficiencies in the construction of policies.Results:A total of 63 policy documents were included, comprising 53 provincial and municipal documents, which were mainly concentrated in economically developed provinces; After three-level coding, 72 third level nodes, 21 second level nodes, and 8 first level nodes(service objects, service providers, service methods, service content, service fees, subsidy policies, hospital bed configuration, and standardized management) were obtained. Among them, the responsibilities of service providers needed to be further clarified, the technical and innovative nature of service content was still insufficient, the charging standards and medical insurance reimbursement policies needed to be improved, the support for subsidy policies was limited, and the use of intelligent devices in bed configuration needed to be strengthened.Conclusions:China′s family bed service policy focused on eight dimensions, covering a comprehensive range of content, but there were still areas that need to be refined and improved. This study suggested that relevant departments should further clarify the responsibilities of service providers, deepen the construction of service connotations, moderately increase government support, promote the intelligent construction of services, and achieve multi-party collaboration to jointly promote the sustainable development of family bed services in China.

In recent years, the aging process of China′s population has accelerated, and the number of disabled people has skyrocketed. It is urgent to improve the health benefits of family bed services. The author found that there was a lack of synergy in policies, service subjects and content, and service concepts in the practical process of family bed services in various regions of China, which limited the effectiveness of services. The author put forward the theoretical framework of integrated family bed service, combined the service practice experience of six cities, namely Guangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, Nanjing and Hohhot, and put forward specific suggestions on building integrated family bed service. Among them, department collaboration could be the source power of system integration, institutional linkage could improve service continuity, service concept and incentive mechanism could promote each other, and modern technology could promote functional integration.
