The TI-Messenger is an important step towards the digitalisation of the German healthcare system, as it can connect heterogeneous organisations and IT systems. In this blog post, I will introduce you to the matrix protocol, the core of the TI-Messenger, and explain why it is the ideal communication platform for the healthcare sector.

Digital innovations are changing the healthcare system – but real improvements will only come about when technology can be operated intuitively. The University Hospital Bonn (UKB) and adesso have developed the ‘Mein UKB’ app to support patients and their relatives in their day-to-day hospital life. Read on to find out how user-centred design facilitates access to digital services and what role usability engineering plays in this.

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. Find out more in my blog post.

Patient engagement is becoming increasingly important in modern healthcare, as it contributes significantly to improving treatment outcomes and reducing healthcare costs. One innovative approach to increasing patient engagement is the application of gamification principles. This blog post explores how playful elements and mechanics from the gaming industry can be integrated into medical applications to motivate patients to proactively manage their health.

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.

Process management is a crucial tool in the changing world of health insurance companies. In this blog post, I provide an insight into the basics of process management and introduce the data-driven approach of process mining. Find out how process mining is shaping the future of statutory health insurance companies, from structured standardisation to improved collaboration and secure legal compliance.

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.
