Abstract

This study proposes a Korean model for a smart home telehealth service, utilizing advanced ICT technologies such as 5G, artificial intelligence, blockchain, and big data, to effectively manage and treat chronic diseases and mental health-related illnesses in an aging society. By improving the existing telehealth system, which is limited to phone consultations and prescription deliveries, this model integrates various health data, mental health information, and emergency detection data, and includes functions for prescription drug management and welfare counseling, creating an all-in-one system. This model is expected to enhance accessibility for vulnerable populations, reduce medical costs, and increase the efficiency of health management, and contribute to the prevention of solitary deaths.
