The Public and Private Sector Co Creation Hub and Health and Global Policy Institute (HGPI) co-hosted the third Young Professionals’ Roundtable for Public-Private Opinion Exchange on Social Security and Healthcare Policy, titled “Thinking About the Future of Healthcare and Society in the Context of Dementia.” The first two roundtables, titled “Transforming Japan’s Healthcare with Data Health,” focused on policy issues in the field of data health and were held on September 28, 2021 and October 25, 2021. At the third roundtable, focus was placed on the field of dementia, a topic mentioned during the discussions on data health.
To begin the roundtable, Ms. Yuri Shimpo (Acting Manager, Dementia Project Promotion Office, Senior Market Division, Sompo Holdings, Inc.) talked about the development of data-based solutions using a Real Data Platform (RDP) and explained the Sompo Dementia Support Program, a cross-stakeholder initiative aiming to create a society of prevention and coexistence. Next, Mr. Toshihiko Yusa (General Manager, Department of Integrated Dementia Strategy and Executive Officer, Planning Department, Eisai Co., Ltd.) gave a presentation on the current circumstances facing people living with Alzheimer’s disease, who are said to account for 60% of all people living with dementia. He shared emerging issues related to the cost of informal care and introduced collaborative efforts with local governments for early detection and diagnosis. After these civil society-led efforts for dementia were introduced, participants deepened the discussion by exchanging opinions and ideas for approaching the public-private partnerships that will be needed in the future while reinforcing mutual understanding between the public and private sectors.

- Creating a prevention market in the field of dementia
