Abstract

This paper analyzes the demands for medical and health cooperation along the Belt and Road, and proposes to establish a telemedicine service system along the Belt and Road by using the natural advantage of telemedicine that it can break the geographical distance limitation. The construction objectives and implementation path of the telemedicine service system were also proposed. Subsequently, challenges in funds, language, talents, and technology in the implementation process were further analyzed, and specific countermeasures and suggestions were proposed, including: building a multi-level and all-round financial support system, applying multiple language strategies “English as a common language, equipped with professional language talents, timely promotion of Chinese”, establish a multi-disciplinary and new mode of talent training mechanism and tailor-made talent export mechanism, form a continuous investment and operation mechanism through the establishment of a professional team.
