Health Policy and Technology

Health Policy and Technology (HPT), is the official journal of the Fellowship of Postgraduate Medicine (FPM), a cross-disciplinary journal, which focuses on past, present and future health policy and the role of technology in clinical and non-clinical national and international health environments. HPT provides a further excellent way for the FPM to continue to make important national and international contributions to development of policy and practice within medicine and related disciplines. The aim of HPT is to publish relevant, timely and accessible articles and commentaries to support policy-makers, health professionals, health technology providers, patient groups and academia interested in health policy and technology. Topics covered by HPT will include: - Health technology, including drug discovery, diagnostics, medicines, devices, therapeutic delivery and eHealth systems - Cross-national comparisons on health policy using evidence-based approaches - National studies on health policy to determine the outcomes of technology-driven initiatives - Cross-border eHealth including health tourism - The digital divide in mobility, access and affordability of healthcare - Health technology assessment (HTA) methods and tools for evaluating the effectiveness of clinical and non-clinical health technologies - Health and eHealth indicators and benchmarks (measure/metrics) for understanding the adoption and diffusion of health technologies - Health and eHealth models and frameworks to support policy-makers and other stakeholders in decision-making - Stakeholder engagement with health technologies (clinical and patient/citizen buy-in) - Regulation and health economics

卫生政策与技术（HPT）作为医学领域下的卫生政策与服务期刊，是研究生医学奖学金（FPM）的官方期刊。期刊重点关注过去、现在和未来的卫生政策以及技术在临床和非临床国家中的作用和国际卫生环境。HPT 为 FPM 继续为医学及相关学科的政策和实践发展做出重要的国内和国际贡献提供了进一步的绝佳途径。 HPT 的目标是发表相关、及时且易于理解的文章和评论，以支持对卫生政策和技术感兴趣的政策制定者、卫生专业人员、卫生技术提供者、患者团体和学术界。
