Priority Investment

Top investment areas for digital transformation in healthcare, the size of the investment challenge, and how to manage that challenge

New research from Siemens Financial Services identifies three priority areas for investment in digital transformation in healthcare:

New generation (digitalized and/or mobile) diagnostics
Remote access and communications platforms (Telemedicine)
Smart, digitalized hospitals

The research conservatively estimates the global ‘investment challenge’ for these three areas and examines the specialist private sector financing tools available to help enable digital transformation.

Digital transformation in healthcare: The global investment challenge

New generation (digitalized and/or mobile) diagnostics

Digitalization is affecting both the administration and management of diagnostic capabilities, and the performance of diagnostic equipment itself. For example, digital linkage of devices allows their clinical deployment to be optimized.

Remote access and communications platforms (Telemedicine)

By enabling patients to consult a doctor remotely, telemedicine can help counter the skills shortage faced by many healthcare systems. Telemedicine also links doctors to equipment and systems in dispersed locations.

Smart, digitalized hospitals

There are a wide range of smart hospital applications, for example, digitalized asset tracking makes sure the right equipment and technology is in the right place at the right time. Predictive maintenance keeps technology and facilities available when they are needed.
