Methodology: Every two weeks we collect most relevant posts on LinkedIn for selected topics and create an overall summary only based on these posts. If you´re interested in the single posts behind, you can find them here: https://linktr.ee/thomasallgeyer. Have a great read!
If you prefer listening, check out our podcast summarizing the most relevant insights from Health Tech Insights CW 50/ 01 :
From pilots to workflow-grade deployment
Trust deficit remained a central constraint, with safety, validation, and clinician confidence treated as prerequisites for scale
Primary care AI was framed as a system-level capability across pathways, with governance and operating models as the real bottlenecks
Digital health value was tied to sustained usage and daily workflow integration, with teledermatology and self-care enablement highlighted
Wearables and remote monitoring were positioned as continuous care-extension layers focused on personalization, not standalone devices
Interoperability, fragmentation, and “plumbing” work
FHIR-driven interoperability and data engineering were positioned as the practical enablers for analytics and clinical decision support
Data fragmentation was repeatedly cited as the root cause of stalled population health and care coordination outcomes
European AI constraints were framed around governance, ethics, data quality, and funding rather than technical capability
Several posts reinforced that compliance alone does not create credibility, with execution and proof of outcomes as differentiators
Productivity, reimbursement, and sustainability signals
Imaging narratives emphasized workflow efficiency and reconstruction speed as clinically meaningful productivity unlocks
A reimbursement milestone emerged in Germany, with AI in breast imaging described as reimbursed by health insurance
Product innovation highlighted sustainability and operating cost logic, including virtually helium-free MR system launches
Radiology themes stressed integrated, workflow-embedded AI rather than add-on tools, with cross-team collaboration required
Robotics moves closer to mainstream choice
FDA clearance of Medtronic’s Hugo robotic-assisted surgery system was positioned as expanding minimally invasive options
Robotics messaging focused on scalability and operating room flexibility rather than pure technical superiority
Clinical collaboration and training were emphasized as part of successful robotic adoption narratives
Procedural “firsts” were used as proof points while reinforcing that execution capacity and pathways still matter
Platform integration and utilization management
Physician overload and interruptions were used to highlight the need for better orchestration layers in care delivery
A partnership signal emerged with Latitude Health and HealthEdge GuidingCare integrating AI-driven utilization management
Operational impact was consistently tied to seamless integration into core systems rather than feature breadth
Regulation, Evidence, and Market Signals
FDA TEMPO pilot narratives highlighted reduced regulatory burden in exchange for data-driven risk management
Health Technology Assessment themes pointed to rising evidence expectations for AI-enabled solutions
Investor sentiment favored AI-enabled medtech while still rewarding strong execution and clinical value in non-AI plays
Enterprise EHR Modernization and AI Agents
Oracle Health narratives emphasized phased operational rollouts and user feedback loops
KLAS survey signals treated AI agent adoption metrics as a new credibility benchmark
Data platform modernization was framed as the prerequisite for scalable automation and clinician-facing AI
