Digital Health Sync has appointed Dr. Yasas Charuka de Silva as its new CEO.
Dr. De Silva stresses the urgent need for digital health solutions at the primary care, outpatient, and clinic levels. With a doctor-to-patient ratio of 1:1000 and an anticipated rise in this gap due to migration, the situation calls for immediate action.
He emphasises that while a fully developed national digital health system is years away, the immediate priority should be the digitization of individual doctors, outpatient departments, and clinics to improve access to care.
According to Dr. De Silva, one of the main reasons for past failures in the country’s digital health efforts is the lack of collaboration between tech developers and healthcare professionals.
This disconnect often leads to solutions that do not meet patient needs, are costly, and lack sustainability. Digital Health Sync aims to bridge this gap by combining healthcare expertise with technological innovation.
As a pioneer in healthcare solutions, Digital Health Sync is committed to offering cost-effective, integrated systems that empower providers and patients, fostering a healthier and more connected future for the healthcare sector.
