Data Analysis Model Design of Health Service Monitoring System for China's Elderly Population: The Proposal of the F-W Model Based on the Collaborative Governance Theory of Healthy Aging.

Abstract

In the era of artificial intelligence, big data and 5G, health care for elderly people is facing an important digital transformation. The objective of this study is to design the data analysis module of the elderly health service monitoring system (HSMS) and attempt to put forward a new healthy aging (HA) model that is applicable not only to the individual HA, but also to the regional HA system. Based on the HA theory of collaborative governance, we divided the elderly HSMS into four modules, including physical health, mental health, ability of daily activity, and social participation. Then, factors that influence HA were assessed by stepwise logistic regression to build the analysis model, using the public micro-panel data of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Survey (CHARLS). Age (odds ratio (OR) = 1.55 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.06–2.27)), living in urban areas (OR = 1.57 (95% CI: 1.03–2.39)), being literate (OR = 1.51 (95% CI: 1.01–2.23)), expecting to get long-term health care in the future from their grown children (OR = 1.69 (95% CI: 1.10–2.61)) and having literate grown children (OR = 2.01 (95% CI: 0.26–0.97)) had a significant positive impact on HA of elderly people. Therefore, the F-W (factors and weighs, also family and welfare) model is proposed in this paper. The outcomes can contribute with designing HSMS for different provinces and several different regions in China and leave a door open to improve the model and algorithm application for HSMS in the future studies.
