Abstract

China has embarked on a technology-led revolution to create a brand-new health care ecosystem. This effort harnesses the capabilities of Internet enterprises with the aim of addressing persistent problems plaguing the country’s health system. In a short span of time since the government unveiled its policy strategy to develop an Internet health care ecosystem in 2018, the health care landscape has dramatically changed. In this article, the authors describe the country’s aspirations for Internet health care and document how this is transforming China’s health care delivery system.
