Virtual reality technologies and the metaverse with its wide range of services can and should be used in the interests of human health. Digital ecosystems offer new opportunities for the healthcare system to utilize telemedicine platforms, monitor people’s health, combat non-communicable diseases, rapidly exchange information within the professional community, instil health awareness in the population, involve patients in managing their health, and help develop and create an environment to preserve people’s health. Technologies that can replace inpatient facilities using AI and the Internet of Things, health monitoring systems, and medical gadgets are making it much easier to move medical care from the walls of a hospital to the patient’s home. This can be particularly useful in situations where there is a shortage of healthcare workers, or in hard-to-reach areas. Today, information technologies that facilitate data exchange and analysis are one of the main tools for modernizing healthcare. A federal vertically integrated medical information system should provide organizational, methodological, and information support for the activities of those working in the national healthcare system within a unified digital environment. What are the current priorities in the introduction of digital health? What barriers are hindering the development of digital medicine? How do digital ecosystems help to improve the accessibility and quality of healthcare? What opportunities and risks for healthcare exist for the practical application of metaverses? What progressive digital healthcare solutions are the drivers of the IT and medical services markets offering today?
