Abstract

<p>Projection of future health for heathy people has been developed with big data, backed by increased availability of genomic information and newly developed technologies including wearable devices and artificial intelligence. This paper discusses critical attributes of health projection services using genome information for successful implementation. It particularly examines the state of art and policy challenges in three settings: population screening program, individual services at healthcare institutions, and direct-to-consumer services. Policy makers should consider different contexts in each setting for implementing socially acceptable services. Across the settings, however, policies shall be developed to ensure appropriate implementation of genomic testing, e.g. by regulating structure of service providers and procedures of testing.</p>
