Abstract: Abstract The integration of information technology into various industries has a significant impact on our societal landscape. This study explores the impact of public service levels on human development, especially in the developing digital era. Using data collected from 31 provinces (municipalities and autonomous regions) in China between 2011 and 2019, the study finds that the improvement of public service levels promotes human development. Meanwhile, digitalization strengthens the positive impact of public services on human development. The paper confirms the positive effects of digital development, providing an empirical basis for promoting the integration of public services and digitalization. The government should strengthen the digital development of public services to provide new driving forces for achieving human development.
