  • Abstract
    In this paper, we present actual condition of Korean e- Health from an industrial aspect. We have investigated the status of e-Health industry from 326 companies in Korea. The questionnaire consisted of four categories which are: the potential of e-Health industry, the key domain of e-Health industry, the bottleneck in the government´s policies, and the importance of national policy for developing e-Health. As a result of this investigation, we have found out that many businesses have expected that e-Health industry will be a powerful industry in the next generation, and mobile healthcare domain will be expected as a core technology.
