The Common Ground of CoMHI in Hiroshima 2009


The Achievement of ICT Society whose advantages are in common to anyone, anywhere, and anytime.

Among the governmental approaches to sustain the public prosperity even under the aging society with low birthrate and longevity maintained, ICT-led medical reform is prioritized in order to provide efficient healthcare service to all people. Considering the common circumstances of developed nations, we should expand the standardization of terminologies and management processes of ICT systems. Then, based on the more assured system stability, more availability can be provided. At the same time, it is crucial to ensure ethical use of healthcare information and system security with the aim of protecting the dignity of every individual.

Meanwhile, WHO reported that the majority of developing nations is facing the difficulties emerging in local communities. Specifically, the available medical resources do not meet the public requirement that preserves the living environment and support healthcare services. How to develop ICT to improve such disadvantages is critical questions.

So far , CoMHI in Hiroshima 2009 will debate possible answers to the questions such as:

  • Data supply useful for health care evaluation and policy making
  • Coordination of technology and ethics in health care information
  • ICT application for open, safe, and efficient healthcare service
  • Multidimensional issues among hardware, software, language expression and human beings
  • The role of ICT and regional networking of healthcare, nursing and welfare (including remote communities)
  • Fostering and educating strategies of Healthcare Information Specialists with high skills of designing, constructing, and managing healthcare information systems.

With the international viewpoints, In Hiroshima, specialists of governmental, private, industrial, and academic sectors will be expected to mutually evaluate their actual results. I hope their "collaborative meetings" will serve as the first step toward the next generation strategy for the world.

"Hiroshima Declaration in November, 2009" will answer all.
