A. EVENT BACKGROUND
The JOINT CONFERENCE: International Conference on Health Administration and Policy (ICOHAP) & International Symposium on Patient Safety and Quality (IUSPSQ) aims to address current issues in the management of global health systems. This year’s theme, “Healthcare 6.0: Turning Challenges into Milestones for Safer and Sustainable Care,” highlights the need to adapt to rapid technological advancements and social changes. The 6.0 Era, which integrates artificial intelligence, big data, and other digital innovations, demands that health systems become more efficient, inclusive, and responsive to public needs. In this context, JOINT CONFERENCE serves as a timely platform to explore the potential and challenges in designing health policies that are not only sustainable but also adaptive to the evolving era.
By involving experts, practitioners, and stakeholders from various sectors, this conference aims to deepen discussions on how health systems can be built to face future challenges, particularly amidst the uncertainties brought by technological developments. Participants are expected to explore innovative solutions that ensure accessibility, quality, and sustainability of healthcare services worldwide.
