NPBP: Global AI benefits intensify in healthcare transformation

Empowering patients to take control of their own health and placing them at the centre of the system is a great opportunity for the transformation of healthcare, likewise in Poland. Why is this so important? Today’s healthcare systems are made of silos: information does not usually follow the patient and is mostly dependent on occasional face-to-face meetings. By making better use of new and existing technologies, data, digitalization, and connected care, healthcare models will develop that support continuous care and health management, instead of instance-driven disease management. However, health management without an informed and engaged patient will be less effective.

The role of active patients as a key to prevent and manage diseases

Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to meet with many local healthcare stakeholders across Central and Eastern Europe travelling from country to country and discussing the main local challenges in healthcare today. One important remedy, that may over time result in the relief of the currently overloaded system, is to put significantly more focus on early detection, moving from treatment to prevention.

With AI technology and predictive insights provided by increasingly large and comprehensive data sets from multiple sources such as GPs, specialists and individuals, prevention can play a much more important role than was previously possible. Today, wearables already provide us with advice on healthy living, activity, and sleep. The knowledge that people who sleep 5 hours a day have a risk of developing heart disease over 80% higher than those sleeping 8 hours raises awareness of the consequences when our devices inform us that we are getting too little sleep. If the entire population implements available health monitoring solutions and has the key metrics controlled in real time by healthcare professionals and continuously analysed by AI, we will already be one step closer to the future of healthcare.
