Last week, colleagues from PSD Scotland, NVCS and Scottish Developmental International met with Yusuke Nakata, Deputy Director for Policy Planning Section, Planning Division, Bureau of Public Health, Tokyo Metropolitan Government. We discussed digital health strategies and virtual consultations in the healthcare environment within Japan and Scotland. This shared learning opportunity was very beneficial to all parties.
“It was extremely helpful to learn in detail about “Near Me” and NHS Scotland’s approach to digital transformation. The discussions gave me many valuable insights, and I will work to make the most of what I learned from NHS Scotland as I consider and develop future policies and initiatives in the Tokyo Metropolitan Government.” – Yusuke Nakata
