Tobias Hermann (DigiHealth Institute) presented the findings of a qualitative interview study on digitalization processes in elder care under the title “Advancing and Establishing Digitalization: Insights into Digitalization Practices in Elder Care” (authors: Miriam Kappe, Annika Wiebe, Tobias Hermann, Johannes Schobel). In particular, these processes require the active involvement of staff as well as a consistent focus on nursing care. The study shows that, in addition to a clear strategy and careful planning, successful digitalization projects require, in particular, the active involvement of employees and a consistent focus on nursing care.
Jan Kirchhoff (DigiHealth Institute) presented a rule-based pricing simulator for AI-based diagnostic decision support systems under the title “Pricing Simulator for AI-Based Diagnostic Decision Support” (authors: Jan Kirchhoff, Fabian Berns, Christian Schieder, Johannes Schobel). The model developed makes it possible to compare different pricing models transparently and in a way that is easy to understand, based on an AI score. The goal is to facilitate the adoption and reimbursement of AI applications in the healthcare sector.
As part of his doctoral research under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Walter Swoboda, Jeton Iseni presented two scholarly papers on the acceptance of digital technologies in inpatient long-term care: “Cross-Technology Factors Influencing Acceptance of Digital Technologies in Long-Term Care: First Findings of a Modified Delphi Study” and “Acceptance Drivers of Digital Technologies in Geriatric Long-Term Care Nursing: Systematic Evidence Synthesis.”
