The workshop ‘Hyperautomation in healthcare: prerequisites and challenges for health managers’ will explore the potential of hyperautomation in the healthcare sector, its application in the context of augmented care and its implications for health managers. In recent years, the world has seen a significant increase in the use of automation in various industries. One of the latest and most advanced forms of automation is hyperautomation. This approach involves the integration of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and robotic process automation (RPA) to automate as many tasks and processes as possible. It has the potential to provide intelligent, data-driven decision support to augment human decision-making.
Applied to the healthcare sector, it can enable managers to streamline processes, increase efficiency, and improve the accuracy of their operations in systems and organisations. It can also help to free up valuable time and resources that can be redirected to higher-level tasks and initiatives. This will ultimately lead to better patient outcomes and satisfaction. During the workshop, speakers and participants will together list prerequisites, gaps, opportunities, and challenges of healthcare hyperautomation. Attention will be paid to healthcare processes, laboratory medicine, and the digital skills required for the health workforce to deal with hyperautomation.
