Deloitte’s 2022 Technology Trends report highlights several technologies that are becoming relevant for healthcare organizations, including artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), data management, and the cloud .
The global healthcare industry is undergoing transformation due to the demand for high-quality care, cost pressures, and changing patient profiles seeking to be more informed and empowered.
This transformation has been facilitated by greater broadband internet availability, decreasing connection costs, increased device integration through Wi-Fi points, and widespread smartphone penetration, creating the perfect foundation for IoT development.
The development of AI and IoT solutions in the healthcare sector has had a significant impact by reducing costs, improving care efficiency, and enhancing the quality of patient care.
Key use cases where these technologies are particularly valuable include:
- Remote clinical monitoring
- Chronic disease management
- Preventive care
- Assisted living for the elderly
- Personal physical status control
Health institutions must also safeguard sensitive personal data, including medical records and financial information. Even the remote operation of devices is susceptible to hacker attacks. The use of AI-enabled capabilities helps prevent, detect, and respond to cybercriminal attacks, ensuring data integrity and proper data functioning.
In the next five years, AI and IoT will be essential throughout the entire value chain and risk management in health services, making early adoption crucial for competitiveness.
Take the lead by integrating solutions that take your healthcare institution to the next level in digital transformation.
