I’m in favor of working out model solutions for use of resources available for the purpose of supporting healthcare initiatives because this allows one to evaluate by comparison those proposed for governmental policy or those available currently from private companies. If one can develop model technology designs, and policies for deploying or implementing them, and you have the metrics to establish the value they could deliver, then you can compare these to others to find the roadblocks in government or the inertia in private business that keep optimal solutions from happening. Private business always experiences inertia because of the weight of their prior investments in particular product and service design and delivery strategies. There is also a considerable amount of ego investment on their part of the managers of both private and public organizations, so no matter how good your model product or service is, it will receive no support or resources from existing organizations if it’s mere existence is too critical of their accomplishments.
The strategy that will likely succeed therefore is an iterative one implementing AI to enhance existing intelligence producing and decision making workflows, keeping those in charge responsible through transparency and accountability of the technology. This is in fact how business and governments are proceeding, with proper caution, and making reasonable efforts to develop and maintain ethical standards. The big new innovation is likely not to occur in existing businesses, nor in bureaucratic government agencies, but rather in a funded startup that forward thinking investors place faith in. This fails far more often than it succeeds, but I think this is where to look for real bake-from-scratch model based innovation which will drive change through public education respecting what is possible and, thereby, through competition with existing means of health value delivery.
