Transforming reproductive healthcare in rural China: The impact of mobile health, telemedicine, and e-health innovations on family planning and maternal health services.

This study systematically examines the impact of digital health solutions on reproductive healthcare in rural China employing a mixed-method approach, including qualitative interviews with healthcare providers and rural patients, analysis of government pilot projects, and review of digital healthcare policies. The methodology combines field interviews, policy research, and project data evaluation to provide a comprehensive picture of how mobile health, telemedicine, and electronic health are being implemented and experienced in the reproductive healthcare system of rural China. The findings indicate that mobile apps for reproductive health education, appointment scheduling, and remote consultations have improved timely access to family planning information and maternal care. The results of this study underline the importance of critical innovations that are beginning to be implemented in rural healthcare in China and the difficulties that must be resolved if scalable long-term success is to be obtained. The study concludes with policy recommendations to strengthen digital health integration in rural regions, enhance training programmes for healthcare providers, and foster public-private partnerships to expand digital services.
