健保破兆+大缺工時代,國家健康照護體系如何突圍?

專訪衛生福利部部長石崇良

台灣健保年度預算正式突破1兆元大關,既是令人震撼的財務數字,也是一記響亮的警鐘,預告台灣醫療體系正站在高齡化與少子女化夾擊的十字路口。
 

由推動健保改革的石崇良「署長」,到掌舵國家整體衛生政策的石崇良「部長」,隨著換了職稱,他把思考重心從給付制度,移往整個醫療和社會結構的長期變化。
 

石崇良說,過去在健保署,核心任務是服務病人和醫護機構,確保預算到位,與民眾及第一線醫護人員息息相關。但站在部長的位置,面對人力短缺與人口結構的劇烈變動,挑戰遠不只是相對單純的醫療給付。他直言,健康照護已不只是醫療問題,而是整個社會如何承接風險的問題,決策及實踐格局必然要放大,不能再侷限於以往照顧疾病為主的模式。

這個轉變,促使石崇良率領團隊勾勒出一份新的國家健康藍圖。他認為,給付只是財務層面的支撐,真正的改革必須回歸到「健康的本質」。
 

他向《生物醫學》剖析,這份藍圖跳脫過去以調整給付為主的思維,改以四項實際行動,重新布署台灣健康照護體系。

從癌症現況到免疫療法未來—
台灣癌症政策的全景藍圖

2026 年 1 月 24 日

從宏觀視角看健保的永續與創新在台灣。隨著醫療科技的日新月異,癌症治療已從傳統的手術、化療、放療,跨入「精準醫療」與「免疫療法」的新紀元。現任衛生福利部部長、曾任健保署署長的石崇良,長期以宏觀的角度尋求健保的永續經營。在 2026 年 1 月 24 日舉辦的《健康台灣論壇》中石部長強調,健保不只是單純的財務給付,更是一場關於「健康力」的社會工程。
 

生物醫學雜誌編輯部將石部長的演講內容整理如下,以享本刊讀者。

癌症已連續 43 年蟬聯台灣十大死因之首,對國民健康與醫療資源構成重大挑戰。隨著肺癌、乳癌等主要癌症發生率持續攀升,全民健康保險制度的財務負擔也隨之加重,2024 年癌症醫療費用已達新台幣 1,464 億元。

​為因應這些挑戰,衛生福利部正積極推動「健康台灣」願景下的癌症照護轉型。我們的策略聚焦於三大支柱:強化早期篩檢、透過基因檢測推進精準醫療,以及設立新台幣 100 億元癌症新藥基金,加速創新療法的取得管道。本簡報將概述我們在這些領域的進展,特別強調我們如何擴大免疫療法的給付範圍,並利用數位轉型建構全面性、數據驅動的癌症照護生態系統。

癌症免疫療法新展望

健保的目標就是 UHC — Universal Health Coverage,全民健康覆蓋。全面覆蓋聽起來簡單,但它的內涵是什麼?我將它定位在三個 A:Available、Accessible、Affordable。
 

Available,指的是台灣市場是否能引進這些藥品?即使藥品尚未在台灣上市,臨床試驗是否應該在台灣進行?近年來我看到的隱憂是,新藥臨床試驗在台灣越來越少。因此我推動一些改革,例如成立臨床試驗聯合中心,透過臨床試驗中心的聯盟來加速試驗流程,從 IRB 審查到廠商簽約,盡量提高一致性。若要快速收案,就必須多中心合作;相反地,如果各院所分別申請 SIRB(單一審查),每個要求的格式不同,簽約內容也不一致,就會形成障礙。等到臨床試驗完成後,如何取得台灣的藥證?這就是 Available 的關鍵,必須從一開始就介入。如果台灣能在臨床試驗初期就納入,那麼就能回答大家的問題:「某藥在國外的數據如此,在台灣是否相同?」若試驗一開始就包含台灣的資料,預測性就會更高。因此 Available 是第一個目標。

癌症治療的第 5 次革命,諾貝爾獎級研究開啟免疫治療新時代

回顧人類對抗癌症的百年史,治療手段曾長期集中於手術切除、放射線破壞、標靶藥毒殺,以及化學治療的地毯式轟炸。2018年,諾貝爾生理醫學獎頒給了發現「免疫檢查點」機制的詹姆斯.艾利森(James P. Allison)與本庶佑(Tasuku Honjo)教授,正式為癌症治療點燃了第5把火炬。
 

這項發現打破了過往以物理或化學手法直接攻擊癌細胞的傳統邏輯,將治療重心轉向「鬆開免疫系統的煞車」,讓病人自身的免疫大軍重拾戰鬥力。
