What I like:
• The dashboard is placed on one single webpage. The information is well organized in steps. I can scroll d…[Read more]

I have Learned about the law, health professions and telemedicine – including the pros, cons and ethical and legal issues.

I have learned that GDPR and PDPA share similar approaches in safeguarding health data in research and healthcare institutions. Organizations must follow legal principles, implement strict security measures, and ensure compliance through policies and protocols.

The Code of Ethics for Health Informatics ensures patient data is handled with privacy, security, and fairness. Ethical rules guide data use, management, and research to protect individuals.

Data quality is very important in AI healthcare because bad data can lead to wrong decisions. Your infographic explains this well!

It’s great that you highlighted responsibility in AI use! I think both AI creators and users must share responsibility, with clear laws in place.

Your wrap-up was clear, and the infographic was well-designed!
AI cannot not complete replace, human decision-making in healthcare.

I have learned about the limitations and precautions of using AI in Healthcare. AI will help and support the work to be efficient, not replace personnel. Because medical and health decisions that involve human life are important. AI decisions will not instill confidence in patients and medical personnel. In addition, there are concerns about…[Read more]

besides increasing special taxes on alcohol and tobacco, controlling salt and sugar levels in the food industry can help reduce chronic diseases. This can lower medical costs and improve public health in the long run.

Thankyou for your explains Myanmar’s progress toward UHC very well. It shows both the achievements and challenges.

Community support and international assistance played an important role in maintaining basic health services. As a neighboring country, we hope for stability and better healthcare access for all people in Myanmar.

Heavy paperwork is one issue in healthcare system. Doctors and nurses spend too much time on documents instead of treating patients. Reducing paperwork with digital systems can help improve patient care.

Thailand has a Primary Care System that is available nationwide, as I mentioned in Topic discussion 1. The Universal Coverage Scheme (Gold Card) is a fundamental right that helps people access medical treatment without high financial burdens. The primary care system in Thailand is divided into three levels as follows:

2. Social Security Scheme (SSS) covering private…[Read more]

It’s really sad to hear that hospitals are often targeted in conflicts. In the past, wars avoided attacking hospitals, but now it’s different. Even in Thailand no war, but we still news about violence in emergency rooms or recently man setting hospitals on fire due to stress. I think mental health monitoring is also very important.

I agree that, we need to think about activities and workforce performance. Effective workforce planning helps support and develop each type of healthcare worker properly. This makes sure there are enough skilled people to provide good healthcare services.

It’s really sad to hear about the healthcare crisis in Myanmar. Helping people in conflict zones is difficult. Humanitarian aid should be given in a way that helps without putting too much burden on the countries providing support. I hope we can overcome this.

The gaps of healthcare inequality between rural and urban areas in Thailand has been a long-standing issue, with significant differences in both access and quality of medical services.

I think that geographical factors and infrastructure are the main causes of this gap. Thailand has a diverse landscape—mountainous regions in the north make t…[Read more]
