Transformación digital de la salud: un nuevo capítulo de atención integral en Taiwán

Mientras el mundo se enfrenta a los desafíos del envejecimiento de la población y la escasez de personal sanitario, la transformación digital en la atención médica ya no es opcional, sino esencial. Taiwán ha presentado la visión “Taiwán Saludable” (Healthy Taiwan), situando el “impulso de la salud digital” en su núcleo. Al integrar el big data, la inteligencia artificial (IA) y las tecnologías en la nube, el sistema busca mejorar la calidad y la eficiencia de la atención médica, avanzando hacia un nuevo modelo de salud centrado en una atención integral y de la persona.
Taiwán se beneficia tanto de una robusta industria de las TIC como de la base de su sistema de Seguro Nacional de Salud (NHI, siglas en inglés), el cual ha acumulado datos sanitarios de alta calidad a lo largo del tiempo, sentando las bases críticas para el desarrollo de la salud inteligente. Sobre este pilar, hemos introducido una plataforma nacional de salud digital conocida como el “Marco 3-3-3”, que integra tres espacios de salud principales, tres estándares de datos sanitarios clave y tres centros nacionales de gobernanza de IA para establecer una infraestructura de salud digital integral. Bajo este esquema, estamos promoviendo la integración de historias clínicas electrónicas en más de 400 hospitales de todo el país y adoptando estándares internacionales como los Recursos Rápidos de Interoperabilidad Sanitaria (FHIR, siglas en inglés) para garantizar la interoperabilidad entre instituciones. Dentro de un marco de ciberseguridad de “Confianza Cero”, los datos sanitarios pueden compartirse de forma segura y utilizarse eficazmente.
Con estas políticas en marcha, ya están comenzando a surgir resultados tangibles. En la gestión de enfermedades crónicas, la “Plataforma de Médicos de Familia” incorpora la predicción de riesgos basada en IA para apoyar a los médicos en la prestación de cuidados personalizados, facilitando la transición de un tratamiento reactivo a una gestión proactiva de la salud. En cuanto a la integración de datos sanitarios, el sistema MediCloud proporciona acceso en tiempo real a los historiales de los pacientes y a la información sobre medicamentos, mientras que la visualización mejorada de los resultados de los exámenes y la interpretación de imágenes médicas asistida por IA mejoran aún más la calidad de la atención y la seguridad del paciente.
La gestión de la salud personal también se ha fortalecido. La plataforma “Mi Banco de Salud” (My Health Bank) ha superado una tasa de adopción del 50 por ciento y puede integrarse con datos de dispositivos portátiles, incentivando a las personas a asumir un papel más activo en la gestión de su propia salud. En cuanto a la digitalización del tratamiento del cáncer, Taiwán utiliza el estándar FHIR para intercambiar datos de Secuenciación de Nueva Generación (NGS, siglas en inglés), acelerando el proceso de revisión para la certificación de enfermedades catastróficas y el uso médico relacionado, mejorando así el acceso a tratamientos oportunos. Además, el impulso de las tarjetas virtuales del seguro de salud, las recetas electrónicas y los servicios de telemedicina está superando eficazmente las barreras temporales y geográficas, ampliando el acceso a la atención rural y domiciliaria.
Taiwán ha establecido un marco de gobernanza integral para impulsar el desarrollo de la IA clínica. Se han creado diecinueve centros nacionales de IA médica que abarcan la gobernanza responsable, la validación clínica y la evaluación de impacto, garantizando que la IA sea segura y confiable en todo el proceso, desde el desarrollo hasta su aplicación. Hasta la fecha, más de 50 productos médicos de IA han recibido aprobación regulatoria, apoyando la detección temprana del cáncer, la predicción de casos cardíacos y el soporte en la toma de decisiones clínicas. Taiwán cuenta además con 13 hospitales clasificados entre los “Mejores Hospitales Inteligentes del Mundo 2026” según el ranking de Newsweek, ocupando el segundo lugar en Asia y demostrando una sólida competitividad internacional. Además, Taiwán está impulsando plataformas de aprendizaje que permiten la validación de modelos de IA entre instituciones y fronteras sin transferir datos sensibles, y ha comenzado a colaborar con socios del sudeste asiático para establecer modelos confiables de intercambio internacional de datos.

Las enfermedades no conocen fronteras y la gobernanza de la salud global requiere una colaboración integral. Taiwán ha establecido un ecosistema de salud inteligente impulsado por datos, potenciado por la IA y respaldado por estándares interoperables, extendiendo los servicios médicos desde los hospitales hacia las comunidades y la vida diaria, logrando así una atención integral. La experiencia práctica de Taiwán demuestra que somos capaces de contribuir a la comunidad internacional.
Sin embargo, Taiwán sigue estando excluido de participar plenamente en la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) y sus mecanismos relacionados. La Resolución 2758 de la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas y la Resolución 25.1 de la Asamblea Mundial de la Salud (AMS) ni mencionan a Taiwán ni lo excluyen de participar en la OMS y la AMS.
Instamos sinceramente a la OMS y a las partes interesadas pertinentes para que apoyen la inclusión de Taiwán en el sistema de salud global, fortaleciendo así su integridad y resiliencia. Taiwán continuará avanzando en la salud inteligente a través de la innovación digital y contribuyendo a la salud y el bienestar mundiales. Juntos, podemos hacer realidad la visión de la salud como un derecho humano fundamental, tal como se establece en la Constitución de la OMS, así como el compromiso de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de las Naciones Unidas de no dejar a nadie atrás.

Fetterman warns Democrats must confront ‘rising antisemitism problem’ after clashes outside NYC synagogues

Violent anti-Israel mob protests outside Brooklyn synagogue
Pro-Palestinian protesters in Brooklyn escalated tensions by hurling antisemitic slurs and clashing with police outside a synagogue on Monday. Video shows an anti-Israel rioter shoving a Jewish girl and an Israeli flag being burned. The incident highlights concerns about growing antisemitism in New York City, drawing criticism from hosts who note similar protests occurred at Columbia University.

Amid mobs clashing with police outside synagogues in New York City, and after a Pennsylvania Supreme Court justice announced he would be abandoning the Democratic Party over its «acquiescence to Jew-hatred,» Sen. John Fetterman, D-Penn., called out his party for its «antisemitism problem.»
A Supreme Court justice in Pennsylvania, David Wecht, who began serving on the court in 2016 and was retained in a 2025 election, put out a statement Monday obtained by Fox News Digital indicating he would no longer affiliate himself with the Democratic Party as a result of «activists, leaders and even many elected officials in the Democratic Party» acquiescing to a rise in antisemitism on the left.
Fetterman subsequently posted on social media that, while he may not have plans to change parties himself, something he affirmed in an op-ed earlier in May, he understood Wecht’s choice and added that «the Democratic Party must confront its own rising antisemitism problem.»
FETTERMAN SAYS ‘MORAL CLARITY’ DRIVES HIS WIDENING BREAK WITH THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
In the past week, two mobs have clashed with police outside synagogues in New York City.
The latest incident took place Monday night when agitators — three of whom police said were arrested — swarmed an area near the Young Israel Senior Services of Midwood, which had been hosting an event advertising real estate in Israel, according to local media reports.
Hezbollah flags, chants of «Zionism will fall» and a banner bearing the red inverted triangle Hamas uses to designate Israeli targets were seen and heard at the Monday clash, according to the Combat Antisemitism Movement and videos shared on social media.
«Mob of Pro-Hezbollah / Hamas s(—)heads raging against law enforcement and terrorizing the NYC Jewish community near a synagogue and day care,» Fetterman wrote in a Wednesday post on X following a clash earlier in May outside a separate NYC synagogue holding another Israeli real estate event. «Where’s my party’s condemnation?»

«There’s a synagogue here. This is clearly a Jewish neighborhood, and they deserve the right to worship in peace,» a counterprotester at the anti-Israel clash in recent days in Brooklyn told Spectrum News New York.
In Wecht’s statement about his plans to leave the Democratic Party, he said that while antisemitism has festered on the fringes of the right for a long time, «that same hatred has grown on the left,» and blamed leaders in the party for failing to stamp it out.
Wecht did not necessarily provide any specific names, or instances, but he hinted at pro-Palestinian protests, mentioned «attacks at synagogues» and appeared to reference one of the party’s burgeoning Democratic Party candidates in Maine, U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner, who has been forced to explain a tattoo he has that resembles Nazi insignia.
JOHN FETTERMAN BREAKS WITH PARTY OVER ‘ORGY OF SOCIALISM’ MAY DAY PROTESTS
«From 1998 to 2001, years that preceded my judicial career, I served as Vice-Chair of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party. In the quarter century that has passed since then, the Democratic Party has changed. Nazi tattoos, jihadist chants, intimidation and attacks at synagogues, and other hateful anti-Jewish invective and actions are minimized, ignored, and even coddled. Acquiescence to Jew-hatred is now disturbingly common among activists, leaders and even many elected officials in the Democratic Party,» he asserted in part of his statement obtained by Fox News Digital.

After Wecht announced his plans to abandon the Democratic Party, Fetterman posted on social media that he «fully understand(s) David’s personal choice.»
«I know David and his legendary father, Cyril,» Fetterman said in a post on X that included a screenshot of a headline about Wecht’s decision to leave the Democratic Party. «As I’ve affirmed, I’m not changing my party—but I fully understand David’s personal choice. The Democratic Party must confront its own rising antisemitism problem.»
Earlier in May, Fetterman penned and op-ed in The Washington Post saying «it has become increasingly lonely» for him in the Democratic Party.
Fetterman slammed the party’s disdain for «once-common views,» which he argued was the result of «catering to the fringe and agitated parts of our base.»
«There’s been a fracturing between me and my party… primarily it’s been Israel,» Fetterman said on «Life, Liberty & Levin» in April, noting that he was one of the few Democrats to support Operation Epic Fury, the joint U.S.–Israeli military campaign against Iran.

However, while Fetterman has publicly discussed his widening break with the Democratic Party, in his op-ed, Fetterman reassured skeptics that he did not have any plans to switch parties.
He wrote that while «being an independent voice» may put him at odds with much of the contemporary Democratic Party, he remains committed to it and wrote explicitly that he has «no plans to leave» the party.

«Plus, I’d be a terrible Republican who still votes overwhelmingly with Democrats,» Fetterman concluded in the May 7 editorial.
Fox News Digital reached out to the Democratic National Committee (DNC) for comment on Fetterman’s remarks.
