    Digital Health Technologies: What Should Governments Invest In? | Beyond the Paper EP2

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Digital health technologies, from AI-powered diagnostics to electronic health records, promise to transform healthcare. But with limited public resources, how can governments decide which technologies are worth investing in? In this episode of Beyond the Paper: Health Research Decoded, Ryan speaks with Khansa, Associate at HITAP, about making informed digital health investment decisions, particularly in low-resource settings. The episode also introduces HITAP’s work on the Digital Health Technology Evidence Guide for Lower-Resource Settings as a part of the Asia Pacific Observatory on Health Systems and Policies (APO), which aims to help researchers and decision-makers assess digital health technologies and make more transparent, evidence-informed investment decisions. APO is a WHO-hosted partnership between regional organizations and countries that advances health policy and systems research in the South-East Asia and Western Pacific regions. Covering 48 countries and areas and working with over 50 partner research institutions, APO promotes evidence-informed decision-making across the Asia Pacific. 🔗 Learn more about the project: https://thesapphire.health/project/who-apo-consortium-on-digital-health-technologies-and-data/ 🔔 Subscribe to HITAP for more episodes of Beyond the Paper: Health Research Decoded. #DigitalHealth #BeyondThePaper #HealthPolicy #HITAP #HTA

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Ageing societies aren't just a “rich country” problem anymore. Many low- and middle-income countries are ageing rapidly, but does an ageing population automatically mean rising healthcare costs and an overwhelmed health system? In this episode of Beyond the Paper: Health Research Decoded, we unpack the biggest myths about population ageing and explore what it really means for health systems, public finances, and future generations. Guest: Manit Sittimart, Senior Project Associate at HITAP Host: Ryan Sitanggang, International Cooperation Officer at HITAP Note: This episode is part of HITAP's knowledge translation initiative.
