Brief summary: The purpose of this project is to design a health management model of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) preventive medicine that meets the need of healthy or suboptimal healthy people and bring up concrete policy and implementation recommendations of "promoting the development of TCM preventive medicine and health promotion services." This project will try to practice "Health management model of TCM preventive medicine" together with health promotion groups related to Taiwan Society of Health Promotion in the district of Shilin, Zhongzheng, Beitou, and Songshan in Taipei city, and plan to recruit 200 people in this promotion project.

Detailed description: As population aging and fast-paced lifestyle go on, chronic diseases increase rapidly and preventive medicine has become the key point of science in modern days. In addition, World Health Assembly urged member states to appropriately integrate traditional and complementary medicine into health services according to the resolutions of sixty-ninth World Health Assembly.（WHA69.24）. To strengthen the foresight of health and welfare governance, Ministry of Health and Welfare lay down "2025 White Paper on Health and Welfare Policy", looking on ahead the needs of health care, preventive care, health promotion and social welfare.

With regard to "Developing traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) Health Care", the goal of "Promoting the development of TCM health promotion service" was set and the strategy of "Promoting the development of TCM preventive medicine and health promotion services" was used to develop TCM preventive medicine, which is applied to preventing disease and improving physical fitness. By establishing the TCM health care prototype of "health promotion" and "preventive medicine," this project will push the systemic development of TCM preventive medicine forward and improve suboptimal health by early intervention, proving people with multiple model choices in self-health management. This project will first form a multidisciplinary team to gather and analyze the domestic and international health promotion and management models of TCM or traditional medicine. Then systematically arrange and induct the literature references to establish the outline and draft of "Health management model of TCM preventive medicine." Furthermore, this project will try to practice "Health management model of TCM preventive medicine" together with health promotion groups related to Taiwan Society of Health Promotion in the district of Shilin, Zhongzheng, Beitou, and Songshan in Taipei city, and plan to recruit 200 people in this promotion project. The purpose of this project is to design a health management model of TCM preventive medicine that meets the need of healthy or suboptimal healthy people and bring up concrete policy and implementation recommendations of "promoting the development of TCM preventive medicine and health promotion services."
