01.Digital Therapeutics at the right time, Hainan ran out of industrial “acceleration”

In January 2022, Hainan will “explore the first trial of Digital Therapeutics” as one of the main tasks of the “14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Digital Health in Hainan Province”, which is the first time that Digital Therapeutics is included in provincial planning. In October of the same year, Hainan launched the country’s first full-cycle support policy for the Digital Therapeutics industry, “21”, and then began to substantively and systematically promote the implementation of Digital Therapeutics.

At this conference, Zhang Yuhui, member of the party committee and deputy director of the Health Commission of Hainan Province, made a keynote report on the theme of “Hainan Rides the Wind – Progress in the Construction of Global Digital Therapeutics Innovation Island”, which comprehensively elaborated on the speed of Hainan’s advancement based on the Digital Therapeutics industry in the past two years, as well as the thinking on the future development of the industry. He said, at present, more and more places in China have begun to strongly support Digital Therapeutics, Hainan, as a leader in the development of Digital Therapeutics industry, will continue to run faster acceleration of the free trade port, and continue to maintain the leading position in the development of Digital Therapeutics.

In this regard, a number of ceremonies, including the “Digital Therapeutics Hainan Initiative”, “2023 Digital Therapeutics White Paper”, “2023 World Congress of Digital Therapeutics Best Innovative and Practical Enterprises” Award Ceremony, as well as “Hainan Digital Therapeutics Innovative Application Scenarios and Solutions Landing Ceremony were all successfully held at this conference, which all-aroundly demonstrated Hainan’s determination and confidence in the development of the Digital Therapeutics industry as well as its fruitful achievements.

It is reported that the “Digital Therapeutics Hainan Initiative” led by the release of the initiative by the Secretary of the Party Committee of Hainan Provincial Health Commission, Director Zhou Changqiang, Director of a number of academicians and experts, a total of 15, meaning that Hainan will unite the core strength of many parties to accelerate the construction of Hainan Digital Therapeutics Innovation Island.

The “Hainan Digital Therapeutics Innovative Application Scenarios and Solutions Landing Ceremony” is a strong indication that Hainan has begun to substantively and systematically promote the landing of Digital therapies. For example, in 2023, Hainan for the first time included Digital therapies in a practical project for the people – a pilot project of cognitive rehabilitation Digital therapies for the elderly. By investing in professional screening tools and Digital Therapeutics facilities, it will provide cognitive impairment screening for Hainan’s resident population aged 60 and above, and provide professional screening, follow-up and Digital Therapeutics intervention services for people with cognitive decline or cognitive impairment identified in the cognitive impairment screening pilot, so as to realize that the province’s elderly people should be screened as much as they can be screened on an equal and voluntary basis.

02. When medicine meets Digital technology, a deeper integration begins

With the help of big data, artificial intelligence and other Digital tools, an emerging medical paradigm that integrates a number of cutting-edge technologies – Digital Therapeutics – has emerged. Digital Therapeutics utilizes Digital tools to integrate comprehensively and deeply with medical services, greatly extending doctors’ knowledge horizons and assisting them in making more accurate medical judgments. It utilizes intelligent algorithms to achieve excellence in the medical process, bringing the optimal treatment plan to each patient, and it transforms the interaction between doctors and patients into a new stage of information sharing and collaborative decision-making.

In recent years, Digital therapies have been developing at a rapid pace globally, and their great value in empowering healthcare is becoming increasingly apparent. From a domestic perspective, Digital therapies are currently in the early stages of development, and from the observation of the product pipeline that is advancing in clinical trials, it has covered a wide range of disease areas such as amblyopia, autism, Alzheimer’s disease, sleep disorders, depression and anxiety.

With the advent of the Digital era, Digital Therapeutics will undoubtedly become a key area of Digital China, a strategic fulcrum for the construction of a healthy China, and the Digital medicine model will receive more and more attention and emphasis.

Fan Daiming, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, Thomas C. Südhof, winner of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, and Jiang Tianjiao, president of the Eggshell Research Institute, gave keynote speeches on “Integration and Steering in Digital Healthcare Development”, “How is ‘Digital’ Changing Biomedical Research and Drug and “Digital Therapeutics: Big Time, Big Opportunity, Big Change”, they agreed that the gradual improvement of the infrastructure of Digital healthcare, such as the great progress of Digital Therapeutics, the outbreak of ChatGPT, the development of virtual reality software/hardware of xR, etc., have pulled the future of Digital healthcare into the reach of the near future, and ultimately benefit the health and well-being of humanity.
