During the conference, a series of activities with the theme of digital health and healthy community were held in Wuzhen.
“The Internet is a natural weapon to break the limitation of time and space, and digital health will become one of the important runways of digital economy in the next 20 years.” Liao Jieyuan, founder of micro-medicine, is full of confidence in the development of digital health. After the establishment of Wuzhen Internet Hospital, the first Internet hospital in China, in 2015, Micro-Medicine has brought a digital health community program accumulated for more than nine years this year, exploring the digital means to help the healthy China campaign, and contributing to the “China Program” to solve the common health challenges faced by mankind and help China and even the vast number of developing countries realize medical health and poverty alleviation.
On October 20th, the summit forum of “internet plus Healthy China Action” held on the opening day of the conference, government leaders, industry experts, entrepreneurs and other domestic and foreign guests gathered in Wuzhen, a water town, to share the innovative practice of “Healthy China” and discuss how to better promote the Healthy China Action with digital platform.
In the global digital era, China is becoming a fertile ground for international digital health industry, and the digital health platform, which integrates advanced technologies such as “5G+ Artificial Intelligence+Big Data”, is becoming a new engine for China’s medical reform to rapidly move towards the 3.0 era. Xie Ruiqian, director of the Office of China Health Action Promotion Committee, said that the current construction of a healthy China is entering a critical period. It is hoped that digital technologies such as the Internet can give full play to its advantages in promoting the balanced allocation of medical resources, disease prevention and control, and health promotion, so as to better meet the health needs of the people.
Bai Shuzhong, Lifetime Honorary Chairman of China Health Promotion Foundation, said in his speech that digital health management can not only break the information island between health management service organizations, but also establish large-scale and large-population health management medical service big data, and even promote the integration of online and offline services, so as to truly “prevent serious diseases, manage chronic diseases and promote health”.
At the meeting, Zhang Tao, mayor of Tai ‘an Municipal People’s Government of Shandong Province, Liu Changmin, standing committee member and executive deputy mayor of Dezhou Municipal Committee of Shandong Province, Liu Ying, deputy mayor of Pingdingshan Municipal People’s Government of Henan Province, Xiao Shixuan, deputy director of Sanming Municipal Government Office of Fujian Province and executive director of Fujian Medical Reform Research Association, and other government leaders spoke successively, sharing the practical experience of landing digital health community to help “Healthy China Action”.

Zhang Xiaochun, co-founder of Micro-Medicine, introduced in the keynote speech that Micro-Medicine Digital Health Community, with health as the center and digital platform as the support, opened up the supply-side resources of chronic disease services, and established a disease prevention and control system of “online+offline, city, county and village, medical insurance and mutual communication” for patients. Online, a special disease area and a closed loop of Internet diagnosis and treatment services will be established.

Under the background of the new medical reform, the market competition is becoming more and more fierce. How to grasp the digital opportunity to upgrade and transform, take advantage of the situation to create an efficient and low-cost pharmaceutical marketing model and form absolute market competitiveness has become a difficult problem that most pharmaceutical companies have to face. Micro-medical digital health platform has also become the first choice for Chinese and foreign large pharmaceutical companies to realize high-quality innovation and transformation in China market.
