Abstract

|
|
|
As the industrial paradigm shift, often condensed as the “4th Industrial Revolution,” gains momentum, there is a growing need toactively introduce digital healthcare into the medical field. The new administration announced its commitment to become a globalleader in the biohealth and digital healthcare sector. To fulfill this pledge, preemptive policy leadership and attention from thegovernment are required. The recent issue of legislating non-face-to-face medical treatment/care suggests that introducing digitalhealthcare goes beyond simply adopting new technologies. Incorporating digital healthcare involves changing the existing healthcaredelivery process and coordinating the roles of stakeholders. To successfully change the structure of the medical industry, a mid- tolong-term roadmap should be meticulously organized and promoted. Policy efforts are needed to resolve conflicts and lead tocompromises through continuous communication with stakeholders/interest groups.
