Abstract
Systemic integration and equitable adoption of Digital Health Technologies (DHTs) require timely, comprehensive, harmonised policies. This paper presents five complementary key enablers: defining DHTs in the scope of fit-for-purpose policy interventions, implementing AI-ready regulatory approaches, adopting dynamic assessment criteria, establishing dedicated reimbursement models, and promoting evidence generation, clinical guidelines, interoperability, and education. Cross-border and multistakeholder collaboration are also crucial to reducing fragmentation, addressing inequities, and driving scalable, systemic value.
