According to a study by Dana Assist, eighty out of every hundred doctors in the province of Alicante lose up to 40% of their workday on medical report preparation. To address this issue, the company has developed an intelligent assistant that helps make consultations more effective and secure, reducing effective visit time loss by up to 50%.
This innovation includes real-time consultation transcription, access to a drug database, consultation of clinical guides and protocols, and an intelligent diagnostic aid chat. It also adds a direct doctor-patient communication channel.
The project stems from the experience of emergency physician and CEO of Dana Assist, Bohdán Isaiev, who notes that "doctors, often, spend more time with the computer than with patients." The tool allows the professional to focus entirely on the patient.
Dana Assist's technology is based on a web version (SaaS) and a downloadable version, both synchronized in real-time. Clinical information is confidential and is filtered before being sent to external servers for report generation.
Isaiev highlights that the main obstacles encountered have been the change in mentality within the static healthcare sector and bureaucratic hurdles. He advocates for promoting automation in healthcare, citing the example of "liquid hospitals" in China.
The start-up now seeks to expand the use of Dana Assist among doctors, hospitals, and clinics, and to establish connections with the public sector to implement these technologies in public hospitals.
Cases like Dana Assist demonstrate the potential of innovation from the PCUMH. To foster similar initiatives, the PCUMH has opened the call for the 16th UMH Marathon, a program for entrepreneurs with innovative ideas.
