  • Summary

    In the Chinese context, “internet plus health care” (IPHC) is introduced as an umbrella term to mean the use of digital technologies to support the delivery of health care and health-related services. IPHC holds great potential to strengthen China’s health system, transform the delivery of health services, and improve equitable, affordable, and universal access to health care. The Chinese government has adopted a variety of regulatory and policy instruments to facilitate the utilization of IPHC before, during, and after COVID-19. This article provides an overview of the development of IPHC in China, with a focus on the regulatory landscape. It then analyzes the challenges that remain in the regulatory framework and concludes with recommendations for furthering the development and utilization of IPHC in the post-COVID-19 era.
