ABSTRACT
The healthcare system has been influenced by the globally growing trend toward a sharing economy and will likely be advanced by these trends in the near future. Therefore, based on peer-to-peer relationships between individuals, sharing healthcare is operationalized through the rental of medical staff, facilities, and other medical resources. Medical data innovation, integration, analysis, and sharing have the potential to dramatically change the current pattern of the healthcare system and to provide precise and predictive medical assessment for individuals in the future. Also, AI could be useful in the fields of both clinical medicine and medical research by helping to minimize the scarcity of human resources and by broadening the role of humans in healthcare.
