A membership community strengthening health systems through research evidence dissemination and mentorship.
Does more technology always mean better health?
In the premiere episode of The Journal Gist, we’re cutting through the ”digital health” hype to look at the reality of implementation.
Based on a study by Kan et al., published in the Bulletin of the World Health Organisation (September 2025).
This research analysed 109 countries to answer a critical question: How does digital maturity actually correlate with primary health care performance?
In this episode, we discuss:
- The 7 Pillars of Digital Maturity: A breakdown of the infrastructure, people, and processes required for digital success.
- Reality Check: Can data actually fix healthcare, or are we just digitizing old problems?
Fasten your seatbelts, it’s time for the gist.
