The 3rd China International Import Expo set up a public health and epidemic prevention zone for the first time, and various smart medical products and services empowered by technology appeared. Attracted many eyes.

　　When the fourth industrial revolution hits, the healthcare industry is undergoing changes. AI, Internet of Things, big data, robotics, 3D printing, wearable devices, virtual reality, etc. are continuously combined with medical technology to push the industry into a new pattern and stimulate Infinite opportunities for innovation.

　　Co-sponsored by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization Investment and Technology Promotion Network, China News Agency and the State Forum, the third China International Import Expo "Fourth Industrial Revolution and Smart Medical Forum", supported by Johnson & Johnson China, was held in Shanghai, surrounded by guests and representatives from all walks of life The theme of "Medical Innovation and Digital Transformation Leading a Healthy Future" jointly issued the "strong voice" of smart medical care.

However, China's total health expenditure accounts for about 6% of GDP, which is lower than the average level of OECD countries in 2018.

It can be seen that China's health market has broad development prospects.

　　Shanghai Deputy Mayor Zong Ming pointed out at the forum that in recent years, with the continuous integration of cutting-edge technologies in the fields of digital technology and biomaterials, the fourth industrial revolution represented by artificial intelligence is opening a new era of human development.

　　At present, digital empowerment is leading the implementation of innovative measures such as medical research and development, remote online consultation, clinical data collection, insurance product design, and remote settlement of expenses.

Digital technology has played an irreplaceable key role in China's fight against the epidemic, deepening medical reform, and improving the public health system.

　　She said that in recent years, China's smart medical market demand has grown rapidly and its scale has expanded rapidly. All regions are actively exploring smart medical care, which will bring major changes and transformations to the medical industry and accelerate the application of new technologies.

　　Ren Hongbin, Assistant Minister of China's Ministry of Commerce, said that in today's world, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation are developing in depth, and China's smart medical market is expanding rapidly.

With the development of China's economy and society and the increase of residents' income, the people's demand for high-quality and healthy life will continue to increase.

　　"To solve health problems, we must rely on modern technology." Asgar Rangoonwala, President of Xi'an Janssen Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Pharmaceutical Research and Development Industry Committee of the China Association of Foreign Investment Enterprises, said that China is currently leading the front in digital technology. The development of Internet healthcare is also at the forefront of the world.

There are four specific cooperation strategies: one is to accelerate the introduction of world-leading innovative products; the second is to speed up local research and development; the third is to strengthen high-end intelligent manufacturing capabilities in China; the fourth is to create an open innovation ecosystem.

At the same time, only by establishing a patient-centric, efficient and innovative medical payment method, can truly smart medical treatment be realized.

　　An Sijia, for example, said that in order to ensure the sustainability of the treatment of patients with severe illness, we are working with partners to explore a new model of patient-centric Internet hospitals so that patients can use the right products at the right time and get reasonable reimbursement. .
