The ever-growing amount of health data enables the development of intelligent and personalized applications for early health detection, diagnostics, treatment and follow-up care. AI-based systems in particular offer enormous potential that SmartHospital.NRW would like to harness for hospitals in North Rhine-Westphalia. The process model developed can be transferred to hospitals with different levels of digitalization and thus offer solutions for the entire industry.
The new process model
