What are the key highlights of this round-table discussion on innovations in medical services?

Driven by the globalization wave, China's medical service system is standing at the forefront of transformation. As a leading institution in higher education in China, Sun Yat-sen University has gathered abundant academic resources and clinical practical experience. Recently, Professor Xiao Haipeng - President of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, and Professor Wang Fan of the School of Business - Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of Sun Yat-sen University, engaged in a profound round-table discussion with Professor Eric J. Rubin - Editor-in-chief of The New England Journal of Medicine.

Professor Xiao Haipeng and Professor Wang Fan both emphasized that the transformation of regional medical service practices will provide an empirical basis for national-level policy-making, while national policies will guide innovation and improvement at the regional level. They also highlighted the crucial role of international cooperation in this process. Artificial intelligence plays and will continue to play an important role in medical management. To obtain high-quality data, robust collaboration in data provision is essential, and China possesses the necessary conditions to facilitate this. And they further introduced their respective medical management training programs and goals - to cultivate future leaders and enhance the capabilities of current leaders.
