Combining domestic research cases and practical experience, this study employs literature analysis,
on-site surveys, and key informant interviews to analyze the current state of medical health data trading. It outlines
critical stages in the entire process, identifies existing issues, and proposes practical strategies for advancement, aiming
to promote compliant and efficient circulation of medical health data. Currently, China's medical health data trading
is gradually forming a development pattern dominated by exchange trading, focused on application scenarios, and
prioritizing compliance. Pilot regions such as Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Guiyang have taken the lead in practical
exploration, accumulating valuable operational experience in core areas like valuation pricing, data rights confirmation,
and matching supply-demand pairs, laying the foundation for industry standardization. However, challenges persist,
including inconsistent data standard systems, imperfect market-based pricing mechanisms, prominent risks of data
security and privacy breaches, and a shortage of professional, interdisciplinary talent, all of which hinder industry
efficiency improvements. To address these shortcomings, the study proposes optimization pathways across multiple
dimensions—enhancing industry standardization, refining value assessment and pricing mechanisms, regulating revenue
distribution rules, strengthening data security technical safeguards, and cultivating professional talent pools. These
measures provide actionable practical references and development guidance for hospitals to conduct standardized data
trading and optimize medical data resources.
