We are excited to see Taiwan take a bold step forward in advancing value-based surgical care.
Following a successful nationwide pilot, ERAS® has now been officially adopted as part of Taiwan’s National Health Insurance (NHI), a groundbreaking move that recognizes the clinical and economic value of implementing ERAS®.
The pilot validated what many in the ERAS® community know well:
Evidence-based care delivers higher quality and lower costs.
This achievement underscores the power of:
- Evidence-based care
- Continuous auditing and pathway improvement
- National collaboration for better surgical outcomes
Taiwan is setting a strong example of how ERAS® can be integrated into health systems to deliver measurable impact, both for patients and healthcare sustainability.
Congratulations to the Taiwan ERAS® Chapter, Dr. Shu-Lin Guo, and everyone who helped turn this vision into reality!
