In the “Trusted Health Ecosystems” project, we are committed to shaping the digital healthcare system of tomorrow in a way that is both “social” and fair. With that in mind, we are creating a vision of a national healthcare platform that promotes participation in healthcare and creates digital “trust spaces". This video is part of the overall concept which is published at www.trusted-health-ecosystems.org.

In the “Trusted Health Ecosystems” project we are creating a concept and a product vision for a national health platform of the future. This video is part of the overall concept which is published at www.trusted-health-ecosystems.org. The core service of the platform provides personalized information pathways that adapt to changing information needs and have the capacity to facilitate the handling of health-related information. To illustrate our concept, we have developed a prototypical design that shows what this platform might look like one day.

In an era where information is abundant and digital platforms offer nearly unrestricted access to knowledge, many people struggle to navigate the deluge of information. Coupled with the phenomenon of rapidly spreading disinformation on the internet, a dangerous combination is emerging, one that will pose significant challenges to healthcare systems in the future. In this video Alexander Sängerlaub (director and co-founder of futur eins) talks about the "brave new communication world".

Platform economy presents opportunities and risks as globally operating tech companies enter the market with new healthcare platforms. National healthcare systems could position themselves in this space with their own offerings and public platforms. This would bring up a range of opportunities for public health.
The experts Dr. Matthias Naab and Dr. Marcus Trapp (Co-Founders of Full Flamingo, formerly at Fraunhofer IESE) present the advantages.

The vision of a national health platform raises questions about the origin of the content and services offered there. A demand-driven offering requires a diverse range of information and services, which a single provider may struggle to fulfill alone. However, the platform operator does not have to create the content. The following considerations of Prof. Dr. Laura Schulte explore whether the platform operator should generate it's own information or focus on facilitating third-party information.

A health ecosystem must fulfill several requirements if it is to bring value to stakeholders within a health system. International models have demonstrated that a successful operational model combines the active participation and coordination among involved actors with common technical standards. Dr. Tobias Silberzahn (McKinsey) presents best-practice-examples from abroad.
