Health Revolution: Creating a New Era of Chronic Disease Care with the "888 Plan"

With the rapid development of modern society, unhealthy lifestyles have become significant contributors to chronic diseases. To address this challenge, President Lai Ching-te proposed the "888 Plan" at the Healthy Taiwan Forum. The plan aims to incorporate 80% of patients with the "three highs" (high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and high blood lipid levels) into a care network over the next eight years. Additionally, it seeks to provide lifestyle counseling to 80% of these patients, ultimately achieving an 80% control rate. This initiative emphasizes not only treatment but also prevention and lifestyle changes, aiming to reduce the incidence and severity of chronic diseases.
