Objectives: With growing attention on the healthcare industry as a potential market for big data and artificial intelligence inthe Fourth Industrial Revolution, countries around the world are introducing and developing various policies and projects relatedto health information technology (HIT). To assist prioritizing HIT topics in policy making, this study adopts the Delphitechnique to garner expert opinions from various fields of health informatics. Methods: Data were collected from November2019 to February 2020 using the Delphi technique through two rounds of surveys administered via email. The Delphi panelconsisted of 16 experts with a high level of experience in health informatics. They were from the Health Information PolicyAdvisory Committee of the Ministry of Health and Welfare of Korea, and the board of directors of the Korean Society ofMedical Informatics. The experts were asked to assess the importance, urgency, and difficulty of HIT topics in three domains:technology, application, and infrastructure. Results: Of the 40 topic items, a 100% agreement was reached for the importanceof 6 items, including 2 items in technology, 1 item in application, and 3 items in infrastructure domains. Especially, QuadrantI of a 2×2 matrix showing high importance and high urgency included 7 items in the technology domain, 2 items in the applicationdomain, and 13 items in the infrastructure domain. Conclusions: Most items with high importance and urgency belongedto the infrastructure domain. The findings indicated that fostering an infrastructural environment should be policeswith top priorities of HIT.
