Andersen Healthcare

At Andersen, we greatly admire the noble work that RenalWorks Pte Ltd, our valued customer, does for dialysis patients. We agree with their Director, Jammie Mathews, that the journey of building something meaningful is never a straight path. Like her, we are also driven by the impact we make in patients’ lives, together with our esteemed clients.   The Andersen Team wishes all the best and good luck to Jammie and the team at RenalWorks for the Annual Dialysis Conference (ADMAN 2024)!

Andersen will be an official partner of the Health Business Forum: Cases, Trends, and Technologies in the Medical Business, taking place in Almaty (Kazakhstan) on 27th September. Organised by DigitalBusiness.kz and 103.kz, this event serves as a platform for sharing best practices and fostering open dialogue among representatives from the medical business, government, technology companies, and AI experts. The mission of the forum is to promote the digitalisation of healthcare in #Kazakhstan and to forge a healthy future for everyone. Key topics will include discussions on the Ministry of Healthcare's and the Ministry of Digital Development’s plans regarding healthcare digitalisation, as well as the role of private businesses in this transformation. What steps are necessary for Kazakhstan to achieve successes in HealthTech that are comparable to those in FinTech and GovTech? A special emphasis will be placed on the use of AI within the medical sector. Participants will explore how AI technologies are already aiding in diagnosis, treatment, and healthcare management in Kazakhstan, unveiling new opportunities while addressing critical regulatory challenges that need to be resolved soon. Renowned speakers from leading pharmaceutical companies, medical centres, laboratories, and pharmacy chains will share successful case studies of digital technology implementation, discussing the pressing issues currently faced by the industry. We are delighted to announce that Ivan Zaguriev, Partnerships Development Manager in the Digital Health and Wellness domain, will be speaking at the forum. His presentation will focus on "Recipes for Digital Transformation in Healthcare: Andersen's Experience in the #USA and #Malaysia." We invite everyone to join the discussion and look forward to engaging with you at this landmark event. Let's work together towards a brighter, healthier future!  ☀ #DigitalHealth #AIinHealthcare #HealthTech

Despite AI’s rapid progress, some professions seem 100% safe from replacement. Healthcare is thought to be one of them. Cyber-neurosurgeons are still sci-fi, with no reality in sight. But does it hold true for each and every professional in this field? Meet IYŪ, an AI-based massage robot built by Capsix. It applies sensors to “adapt” procedures, building upon one-of-a-kind body-specific data and personal preferences. The robot's mechanical arms, fitted with massage nodes, move smoothly over the body, altering pressure and techniques in conformity with identified muscle tension. In-built features provide for safety and user protection. Check out this video, posted by The Independent, to the robot in action! Would you agree to a session with this robot, either on your own or if advised by a therapist? In any case, medicine, despite the importance of human-to-human interaction and the enormous responsibility on individuals, is being robotized as well. #ArtificialIntelligence #HealthTech #FutureofHealthcare #AIinMedicine #MedicalInnovation #DigitalHealthcare

Healthcare opts for AI. For custom-built AI. At Andersen, as a custom software development hub for healthcare clients, we firmly believe that one size does not fill for all and it is very often in clinical care that bespoke solutions are the best way forward. When we came across industry insights from McKinsey & Company, we were pleased to see that their findings confirmed our assumptions, especially in such a pioneering field as AI. Namely, their 2024 survey involved 100 US healthcare leaders and sought to explore attitudes to adopting generative AI in this professional group. Here’s what the survey results reveal: - Generative AI is expected to transform healthcare, with over 70 percent of organizations already pursuing or implementing these technologies; - While healthcare organizations are eager to integrate generative AI, some remain cautious, adopting a wait-and-see approach; - Most organizations are in the proof-of-concept phase for generative AI, carefully weighing the benefits and risks. One of the best strategies to mitigate potential risks is relying on bespoke AI-driven solutions, and the survey supports this approach: - A majority of organizations that are implementing generative AI are collaborating with third-party vendors (59 percent), with 24 percent developing solutions in-house, and only 17 percent opting for off-the-shelf products. This reflects a strong preference for customized AI solutions — a trend that aligns perfectly with our focus at Andersen. This is great news for vendors like Andersen but also a great responsibility to implement these new tools in the most effective/efficient and usable way in order they will be able to serve medical professionals and their patients.

Is partnering with custom developers the best approach in the AI-for-healthcare domain? #AIInHealthcare #CustomAI #HealthcareInnovation #HealthTech #AIAdoption #MedicalAI

🚑 🏥 Overseeing digital transformation initiatives in care is challenging yet rewarding. In our latest expert interview, Alena Burdzialouskaya, Andersen’s Head of Partnerships, discusses this exciting topic with Claus Torp Jensen.   Claus is a chief digital officer and chief technology officer of leading healthcare organizations, so he knows the topic inside and out. He is also a motivating storyteller and a critical thinker. As our guest put it, “We have to not just look at the engineering aspect of solutions. We have to not just think about requirements. We have to look for the great experience.” We were particularly curious to hear his opinion on: ✅ patient centricity  ✅ team motivation ✅ technology trends ✅ digital product development ✅ benefits and drawbacks of digital transformation in care ✅ AI in remote patient monitoring ✅ the evolution of telemedicine, etc. We are sure that if you aspire to meaningful changes and innovation in your organization in any field (not only in healthcare) this interview is a must to see for you. As Claus shared with us, “Innovation is hard. A lot of times, people think of innovation as something that happens on the side. I always believe that it’s part of the day job.” See the full interview by clicking on the link below: https://lnkd.in/dJ5VDgm8 #HealthcareInnovation #DigitalTransformation #PatientCentricity #Telemedicine #HealthTech

Allergies are no nuisance. Luckily, new ways emerge. Allergies are more than seasonal sneezes and sniffles. For millions of people worldwide, these conditions can lead to severe and life-threatening reactions, such as anaphylaxis. It suffices to say that 30-40% of the global population suffers from allergic conditions, while the global incidence of anaphylaxis stands between 50 and 112 episodes per 100,000 person-years. Anaphylaxis can kill the patient within minutes by causing shock and difficulty breathing, and immediate intervention is required. For years, the EpiPen has been the only go-to solution for those at risk. Basically, the EpiPen is a specially designed syringe, delivering a quick dose of life-saving epinephrine into a patient's muscle. Though life-saving, this approach carries some intrinsic risks, such as delaying the injection due to fear of needles and the risk of confusion during use in critical situations. For example, a study by Professor Dr. Nathan Bond's et al. from the Texas State University Medical Branch found that just 16 percent of adults who've been prescribed epinephrine know how to use an autoinjector, including parents who might need to inject their child. Now, there's great news for those affected: the FDA has approved Neffy, a needle-free nasal spray that offers a new, user-friendly alternative to the traditional auto-injector. Designed for both adults and children, Neffy promises easier administration; broader accessibility; and potentially, a reduction in the number of anaphylaxis-related deaths. Truly an awesome example of medical progress! But everyone knows that prophylaxis is better than treatment. At Andersen, as a team of medical app developers, we would like to draw your attention to innovative ways to prevent allergies and to stay informed and better prepared when living with allergies, using innovative digital instruments like Allergy Plus or Allergy Force, which track allergens and help manage consequent conditions. As we embrace new innovations like Neffy, the integration of such advancements with cutting-edge technology offers a powerful means for individuals to take control of their health. Together, these innovations pave the way for a future where living with allergies becomes easier and less daunting. #Allergies #DigitalHealth #HealthTech #MedicalInnovations #EpiPen #Neffy

Alina Lada, Director of IT Partnerships at Andersen, recently shared an elegant and highly technical publication about how classical music aids individuals with severe depression.

What is the Most Useless Invention in Pharma? Craig Lipset, the former Head of Clinical Innovation and Venture Partner at Pfizer, and one of the most inspiring people in the life sciences, believes that the most useless invention in Pharma is not Piracetam (or other synthetic nootropics), which have not been proven effective in clinical trials. Like Elon Musk, Craig considers standing, repetitive meetings for the sake of meetings to be the most useless invention in Pharma 🤼 At Andersen Healthcare, we agree with Craig and strive to be as productive as possible during our meetings, especially with clients. We ensure a clear and tangible agenda is on the table and invite only the relevant Andersen team members. A clear benefit of Andersen Lab's team, which consists of more than 3,500 members, is the accessibility of virtually any in-house specialist. If our healthcare clients need fintech advice (e.g., about integrating a health information system with a third-party payment solution) or information about embedding generative AI solutions into a client's system, etc., the Andersen team is ready to help immediately 🚁 We wish you a great and productive day! 😍 Please share your own productivity tips with us 🙂
