Abstract

Costs related to healthcare are exploding. In Europe studies show that they will reach in 2050 up to 10% to 15% of the Gross Domestic Product. Several causes drive up these costs such as ageing population or the rise of chronic diseases. Adverse events jeopardizing patient safety in complex hospital workflows such as Hospital Acquired Infections are also a major contributor to these costs. But recent studies suggest that it might be possible to reduce this impact by 20 to 30% with a combination of appropriate processes and smart monitoring tools. Information Technologies are therefore seen as a key enabler to help improving information workflow and process efficiency inside hospitals.
