AB - Various information and communication technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), have the potential to change our lives, and are expected to bring about many changes in the healthcare sector. China has serious medical imbalances due to the medical gap between large cities, medium-sized cities, and rural areas, and these problems cannot be solved simply by dispersing the population or expanding the medical infrastructure in rural areas. Government-led or medical institution-centered problem- solving methods are bound to have limitations, and now we need to make efforts to solve problems centered on consumers who are both patients and citizens. Therefore, a groundbreaking reform of governance is necessary for the efficient establishment of an AI-based healthcare system.
Despite the rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into China’s healthcare, there is still a large research gap in deeply understanding the political, institutional, and economic implications of these technologies for health equity in the long term. Most studies focus on technical and clinical outcomes, overlooking the impact of AI on health equity over time. Therefore, this study aims to develop and validate a comprehensive framework to ensure that AI-based healthcare solutions are accessible to all populations without bias. In doing so, we seek to explore how AI technologies can contribute to reducing healthcare accessibility gaps and promoting equity. By deeply exploring the long-term ethical and social implications of AI, this study aims to help build sustainable healthcare systems and ultimately establish human-centered governance that can be applied not only in China but also in other Asian countries.
