Research & development to support the growth of a strong digital health industry.
Opportunity: This project will develop an online tool to help classify different types of Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions used in Australian healthcare. The online tool will adapt the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) AI Classification Framework to the Australian context, reflecting recent government policies, including proposed mandatory guardrails for AI across the Australian economy.
Opportunity: Since 2018, the Western Australia Country Health Service’s Command Centre (WACHS CC), a virtual clinical hub, has provided more than 160,000 video consultations to 88 emergency sites state-wide and have avoided hospital transfers for 74% of patients seen by their service.
Opportunity: Surgery plays a crucial role in healthcare, accounting for 30% of the global burden of disease (Shrime et al., 2016).
