SingHealth

Our smart healthcare journey: Small steps, big impact 🏥🚀 At #SingHealth, we're transforming healthcare through #innovation. But our approach isn't about chasing the latest tech trends. As SingHealth Deputy Group Chief Medical Informatics Officer, Prof Khung Keong Yeo, explains in an interview with Silver Commonwealth Magazine: "Take small steps and run fast, don't pursue technology for the sake of technology." 🏃♂️💡 We've learned valuable lessons: • Start small, improve continuously 🌱 • Don't fear failure - it's part of innovation 💪 • Focus on benefits for patients, doctors, and hospitals 🎯 As the CEO of National Heart Centre Singapore, Prof Yeo led the AI chatbot project for chest pain triage. Initially at 70% accuracy, we've now improved it to 90% - a perfect example of continuous refinement! 📈🤖 Read the article to discover how we're using AI chatbots to enhance patient care, and why there are no payment counters in our hospitals. https://lnkd.in/gap2tqig #SingHealth #SmartHealthcare #DigitalTransformation #DefiningTomorrowsMedicine
