Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With vast improvements in people's living conditions, increased awareness of health management and the aging of the population, the demand for medical and health services continues to expand. In addition, quantitative data are demonstrating explosive and geometric growth, and the efficiency of data analysis and management is thus being greatly enhanced. Healthcare big data is a crucial aspect of the future development of the digital economy, and plays a significant role in enhancing the quality and efficiency of healthcare services, promoting medical technology innovation, and securing the health and safety of older people. Simultaneously, the industry is also facing challenges in data standardization, data security and data privacy. It is necessary for all industry participants to jointly endeavor to establish and improve relevant laws, regulations and institutional norms to promote the healthy development of the healthcare big data industry. Data resources such as medical big data, health big data, biological big data, and business operation big data should be comprehensively employed to conduct in-depth research on the criteria used to judge the health status of each element, and to further analyze the paths and rules of the operation of each medical and healthcare element as well as their mutual influences. Based on the above considerations, we propose this Special Issue, which aims to collect empirical studies and theoretical contributions on healthcare big data and elderly health management, and to explore the problems of healthcare big data, health management, and population ageing. We welcome contributions from the fields of healthcare resource management, social security, demography, geography, and health economics.
The scope of this Special Issue includes (but is not limited to) the following:
- Healthcare data standardization and applications;
- Healthcare data security and privacy;
- Healthcare big data and health economics;
- Innovation in health management;
- Population ageing and health promotion;
- lderly services and social security;
- Intelligent ageing and smart aging;
- Health and medical market and policy effects.
