Press Releases
Digital Public Health: We need to use the wealth of data available to finally focus on prevention and health promotion. Data4Life & the Hasso Plattner Institute (HPI) are jointly driving the digitalization of public health.
High-calibre panel calls for better use of existing data as a basis for meaningful digitalization in the healthcare sector. Germany spends over 12.9% of its gross domestic product on healthcare, making it the EU leader in this area. This is not currently reflected in life expectancy, where we are in 22nd place (Federal Statistical Office, 2024). Although millions of patient data are generated every day, they often come to nothing - unused by research. "Why do we pay for illnesses?" asks Prof. Dr. Dr. Lothar Wieler, Head of Digital Global Public Health at the Hasso Plattner Institute. "To change the healthcare system, you need data that decision-makers can't ignore."
