Ministry of Health and Welfare Supports Demonstration and Adoption of Digital Healthcare Based on Medical Institutions
The Ministry of Health and Welfare announced on the 21st that it will support 31 projects selected for the 'Digital Healthcare Demonstration and Adoption Based on Medical Institutions' initiative.
This project is operated to support multi-institutional clinical demonstrations so that digital healthcare products with high technological maturity can be utilized in medical institutions based on actual demand.
The projects supported this time are composed of three areas: ▲Demonstration of technologies to activate non-face-to-face medical services ▲Demonstration of innovative digital healthcare technologies ▲Demonstration of technologies for implementing home hospitals. 135 medical institutions and companies are participating.
In the field of demonstrating technologies to activate non-face-to-face medical services, the goal is to develop models and demonstrate product groups so that patients in medically vulnerable areas and with specific diseases can safely and effectively use non-face-to-face medical services. In the field of demonstrating innovative digital healthcare technologies, support is provided for multi-institutional clinical trials of software-based medical devices (SaMD) such as AI diagnostic assistance solutions and digital therapeutics. Lastly, in the field of demonstrating technologies for implementing home hospitals, the goal is set to create an environment where digital healthcare services can be received at home.
This project plans to support the achievement and dissemination of results through project management and evaluation by the Korea Health Industry Development Institute, a research and development specialized agency under the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
