Digitalisation in healthcare has gained momentum in recent years, and telemedicine in particular is playing an increasingly important role. Our current digital and telemedical care structures need fundamental renewal. In this blog post, I will show how the TI-Messenger (TIM) can solve these challenges in its third stage of development.

Telemedicine – the treatment of patients by practitioners at a distance – has been around for years, and medical advice over the phone is nothing new either. So you might wonder why the healthcare system suddenly needs video consultations. In this blog post, I would like to give you an overview of why video consultations are more than just a phone call, what is behind them and why they should be adopted. This article is part of my blog series on the topic of telemedicine.

From step counters to sleep trackers and breathing coaches – smart health gadgets are a breath of fresh air in the office! With technologies such as smartwatches and fitness trackers, employees can keep an eye on their health, reduce stress and even prevent illness. This opens up new opportunities for companies to promote the well-being of their workforce and at the same time reduce sick days. adesso supports companies in integrating these innovations – securely and in compliance with data protection regulations.

When developing medical software, it is crucial that the software is not only functional, but also fulfils the specific needs of both healthcare professionals and patients. Why does user-centred design play such an important role here? How is it integrated and what benefits does it bring? In my blog post, I will give you an insight into how human-centred design makes an important contribution to improving standards in healthcare.

In an increasingly complex and individualised world of healthcare, the demand for personalised solutions in health insurance is growing. The introduction of customised offers not only has the potential to increase customer satisfaction but also to optimise the entire customer journey. In this blog post, I explore how these individualised approaches are changing the interaction between insurance companies and policyholders and what impact they could have on the future of healthcare.

Many companies develop their products based solely on their own assumptions about the target groups. Ultimately, however, these fail because they offer no real benefits to their users. Focusing on the topic of digital health, I will explain how product discovery can be used to develop safe and successful applications that both offer people real added value and also meet the regulatory requirements in this blog post.

Despite their immense potential, the implementation of digital health devices also provides a few hurdles. To overcome these challenges, implementing digital health devices in hospitals requires a strategic approach. Despite these challenges, Swiss healthcare stakeholders are actively promoting digital health initiatives.

Prevention apps are digital tools that seek to increase user awareness for health and proactively prevent diseases. They can take the form of online interventions, mobile apps or hybrid training formats. In this blog post, I explain what exactly prevention apps are, the regulatory and technical requirements associated with them and whether it makes sense to develop one in the first place.

The digital transformation is changing the healthcare sector. New technologies and advanced data collection systems are revolutionising the way that health services are provided and managed. In this blog post, I will take a look at the key legislative initiatives that will shape how the handling of digital health data will be regulated and optimised in the future.
