Learning Health Systems
The Learning Health Systems (LHS) is a self-evolving health system in which daily life is detailed and examined to generate new knowledge. It is also a system that continuously renews daily life. Through this, a community-based total learning health system was created to combine various community resources and provide a fully tailored healthcare solution by outlining, integrating, and sharing them, with the goal of creating the Living Lab.
