The Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia has published its ‘Blueprint of Digital Health Transformation Strategy 2024’, providing an overview for stakeholders and key players within the health industry on “the road map for Indonesia’s digital health transformation.
The strategy begins by setting the scene for digital transformation in Indonesian health, highlighting challenges including data fragmentation caused by “the high number of health applications and the lack of regulation on standardization and data exchange”, resulting in “health policies which are not based on comprehensive data and inefficient health services”. 80 percent of health care facilities are “currently untouched by digital technology”, and current data is fragmented “across hundreds of varying health sector applications”.
