Taiwan is about to host a world-renowned event—the World Congress on Medical and Health Information, which will be held in Taiwan next August. Taiwan will exchange ideas with other countries on the comprehensive innovative applications of AI in health and welfare, national health insurance, medical care, long-term care, and wellness.
This international conference, hosted by the Taiwan Society for Medical Informatics, marks another instance of Taiwan being recognized globally for hosting the world's most representative and largest-scale medical and health information conference since the Taiwan Society for Nursing Informatics successfully hosted the Global Nursing Informatics Congress in 2014. It not only highlights Taiwan's important position in global medical technology but also provides an excellent platform for Taiwan to showcase its innovative medical information systems and AI applications.
According to multiple global rankings, Taiwan's healthcare system ranks among the best in terms of accessibility, efficiency, and quality. Behind this achievement lies Taiwan's long-term and substantial investment in healthcare information system development and talent cultivation. Taiwan's healthcare information system is one of the key factors contributing to the high efficiency and quality of its healthcare system. The implementation of the National Health Insurance IC card allows patients' medical records to be shared across different medical institutions, significantly improving the efficiency and accuracy of diagnosis and treatment.
Meanwhile, Taiwan has established a comprehensive electronic medical record system, which not only facilitates doctors' access to patients' medical history but also provides valuable data sources for big data analysis and medical research. Furthermore, several innovative medical information applications, such as telemedicine systems and next-generation digital healthcare platforms, will showcase Taiwan's leading position in the field of medical information to the world at this conference.
Beyond traditional medical information systems, Taiwan is at the forefront globally in the application of AI in healthcare. In recent years, Taiwan has achieved numerous successes in the field of medical AI. These innovative applications have not only improved the quality of healthcare but also created significant economic value for Taiwan's healthcare industry. At this conference, these cutting-edge technologies will allow the world to witness Taiwan's innovative strength in medical AI applications.
The World Congress on Medical and Health Information, held in Taiwan, holds dual significance. First, it showcases Taiwan's strength in medical information technology to the world, demonstrating that behind Taiwan's excellent global healthcare rankings lies a first-class medical information system and outstanding medical talent. This will further solidify Taiwan's leading position in the global medical information field. Second, it highlights Taiwan's innovative capabilities in AI applications in healthcare. Taiwan not only leads the world in the research and development of AI semiconductors and servers, but also continuously innovates in applying AI technology to the medical field. This congress will further enhance Taiwan's influence in global medical technology!
