Swecare Podcast

Sweden is in the midst of a healthcare reform. The aim is to achieve a shift from a traditional healthcare system focused on emergency hospitals and specialist care to healthcare provision closer to the patients with increased patient involvement and more preventative measures. By reorganizing and using the opportunities that new technology and digitalization provide, advanced care can be provided outside hospitals. Local clinics and your own home will replace hospital wards. Some of the Swedish regions have come far in this work, the vaste and sparsely populated Jämtland-Härjedalen is one of them.

In this episode we will look into how remote patient monitoring can transform healthcare systems and handle more patients with fewer resources but equally important, how it empowers patients and improves their quality of life.

Sweden has a reputation of being a prominent research nation with a high digital matureness and is ranked as one of the world’s most innovative countries. You've probably heard of the Pacemaker, the Leksell Gamma Knife, Losec, Spotify and cashless payment! All of them Swedish innovations. The Swedish start-up scene is vibrant and generates more life science companies per capita than any other country. Who could imagine that the Swedes, known to be moderate, typically avoid drawing attention to their own accomplishments and definitely not brag about success – are the ones ending up at the very top? In this episode we will uncover why Sweden has fostered so many successful innovations.

Most of the world is facing the same demographic crisis. We're getting older and are consuming more health care. At the same time, we are not getting more people working in health care. The equation simply doesn't add up. We have heard a lot about artificial intelligence and digitalization of health care lately. Will it change everything or nothing? In this episode, we will look closer upon the opportunities of AI and digitalization and explore how Sweden turned from being one of the poorest countries in Europe - to a frontrunner in digitalization of healthcare.
