through intelligent self-documentation, can have a positive impact on the prevention or healing process. A particular focus is on apps and wearables whose active use, e.g. The “Digitale Fortschritthub” LeMeDaRT (Lean medical data: the right data at the right time) shows how digitalization in medicine can improve care even in remote rural regions. In three use cases – oncology (lung and colorectal cancer), psychiatry (depression) and sports medicine – DECIDE aims to support healthcare providers and patients with a variety of IT solutions (telemedicine, apps, etc.). The central goal of the “Digitale Fortschrittshub” DECIDE (Decentralized digital Environment for Consultation, data Integration, Decision making and patient Empowerment) is to connect rural regions better to health care and thus reduce the gap in the quality of care between urban and rural areas. Among them are four hubs coordinated by MIRACUM sites. Six projects were able to convince with their proposals and will be funded by the BMBF with 50 million Euros until 2025. These hubs are to elaborate and pilot initial solution concepts. To achieve this goal, the „Digitale FortschrittsHubs Gesundheit“ were launched.

In a next step, the focus will also be on all other areas of the healthcare system: from outpatient care in the general practitioner’s office to inpatient stays in the local hospital and care in nursing and rehabilitation facilities. Successes to date have yet been limited to university medicine environments and university medicine data sharing processes. In the past few years, the medical informatics initiative has achieved important pioneering results on the digitization of healthcare. Medical Informatics in Research and Medicine Menü
