AbstractThe article analyzes e-health progress in East Asia's leading tiger economies: Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan. It describes five main dimensions of e-health provision in the tigers: policymaking, regulation, provision, funding and physician-patient relations. We conducted a series of fieldwork interviews and analyzed key healthcare websites. Our main finding is that the development of e-health in the region is less advanced than might be expected. Our explanation focuses on institutional, cultural and financial factors. © 2004 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
