With the development of new technologies such as the Internet, big data, and AI, digital therapy has gradually developed into an emerging sector in digital diagnosis and treatment. Even 6 years after the global development of digital therapy, numerous problems that need to be solved have been identified through research and investigation. Through comparative analysis of the current development status of digital therapy both domestically and internationally, this study proposes opportunities for its development in China from both policy and technology perspectives, as well as corresponding challenges from the perspectives of cognition, classification, and quality. In response to these challenges, it proposes prospects and suggestions for the future development of digital therapy.
