"Digital health" acceleration strategy
As part of the France 2030 Plan, the government is launching a "Digital health" acceleration strategy. Announced in January 2021, this five-year strategy brings together the Ministry of Health and Prevention, the Ministry of the Economy, Finance, Industrial and Digital Sovereignty, the Ministry of Higher Education, Research, and Innovation, and the General Secretariat for Investment (SGPI).
A strategy to prepare for the future and make France a leader in digital health.
As part of a concerted effort involving all stakeholders in the digital health sector, this proactive "Digital health" acceleration strategy aims to:
- Promote the shift from a siloed, curative approach to a more preventive, predictive, and personalized one,
- Foster the emergence of a major digital health ecosystem in France, capable of asserting itself in a competitive global market,
- Process health data securely and ethically, without relying entirely on a few players subject to regulations that offer less protection for personal data.
