Demand for healthcare services is increasing, and most regions are experiencing shortages in the supply of healthcare professionals. Effective digitalisation in private healthcare may bring broader societal gains as it improves, among other things, the allocation of human resources in the sector. This will also reduce the load on public healthcare systems and furthermore support sustainability and public health.
