WB advocates for digital investment in health sector


The World Bank has emphasised the importance of countries investing in digital technologies for health to enhance healthcare service delivery and accessibility. Their report, Digital-in-Health: Unlocking the Value for Everyone, underscores how digital tools can address challenges in the health sector, especially for low- and middle-income countries under fiscal constraints. The institution highlighted that such technologies can bolster health systems, enhance health financing, public health, and extend services to marginalised communities. As the health sector remains underutilised in terms of digital solutions, even post-COVID, the World Bank suggests prioritising evidence-based digital investments, strengthening regulatory frameworks, and ensuring sustainable healthcare access for all.
