Prof. Ariel Stern from the Hasso Plattner Institute explains which approaches could be used to improve digitalization in the healthcare sector.
The article from Heise Online discusses the work of health economist Prof. Dr. Claudia Witt, who is pushing for a more scientific approach within the digital health community. Witt, based at the Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, emphasizes the need for rigorous scientific evaluation of digital health applications (DiGA) to ensure they are effective and beneficial. She highlights the current lack of high-quality evidence for many digital health tools, which often rely on observational data rather than controlled clinical trials. Witt advocates for the integration of digital health into conventional healthcare systems through evidence-based practices, suggesting that digital health should not only focus on technological innovation but also on proving its clinical efficacy. Her efforts are aimed at fostering a dialogue between developers, healthcare providers, and researchers to enhance the credibility and utility of digital health solutions.
