Abstract
ABSTRACTThe increasing prevalence of prediabetes and diabetes has become a serious problem in Korea. This study aims to compare the effects of various policy options for mHealth proliferation for managing and preventing diabetes. To this end, we simulate the plausible possibility of mHealth using system dynamics modelling. There are several important findings of this study that are helpful to policy makers’ decisions. First, innovative healthcare delivery through mHealth has a positive influence on health to significantly reduce prediabetes and diabetes. Moreover, the gap between the healthcare system with and without mHealth increases over time. Second, the effectiveness of mHealth adoption depends on the timing of implementation of institutional reforms. Finally, mHealth adoption can stimulate national economic growth as the demand for a new healthcare system rises.
