Abstract
This study assesses the influence of digitalization on the public health sector across 52 countries. For the above-mentioned investigation, it creates a digital infrastructure index (DII) which is used to observe the progress of these countries in digitalization. Public health index (PHI) is also created for selected countries during 2010 – 2022. Further, estimated values of the PHI are considered to explore the relative progress of these countries in public health. The Karl-Pearson correlation coefficient analysis is adopted to observe the association of digitalization and public health with other macro indicators. It also examines the association of digitalization with public health as including specific control variables in regression analysis. It found a positive causal association among the mentioned indexes. The global countries cannot improve their health sector without adopting digitalization. The empirical results are helpful to improve public health using digitalization, digitalization as improving public health.
