■Summary of meeting
Countries around the world are working to secure health care sustainability through the use of innovation and new technologies to improve productivity and increase health system efficiency and effectiveness.

In Japan, critical policy documents, including the “Japan Revitalization Strategy” have brought health technology into focus. And it is clear that ICT will foster a telemedicine infrastructure and improve health care quality, cost, safety, and performance.
