Part of the Health Care in Transformation: Care – Data – Costs Conference.

This session will bring together leading experts and industry practitioners to explore how cutting-edge digital solutions, from artificial intelligence and telemedicine to advanced data analytics, are transforming clinical practice, operational efficiency, and patient outcomes. Attendees will gain strategic insights into current trends, emerging opportunities, and the challenges shaping the health ecosystem. This panel is designed for professionals seeking a deeper understanding of how innovation is driving sustainable, patient-centric healthcare delivery.

In Slovakia, investing in efficiency, transparency, and modern technologies, including AI, offers a clear path to reducing inequality and improving access to care. By optimizing funding allocation, leveraging EU resources, and implementing digitalization, Slovakia can lower out-of-pocket costs and strengthen trust in healthcare institutions. These improvements would not only enhance patient well-being but also deliver significant economic benefits, reducing productivity losses and boosting confidence in governance.

15.00 - Panel Discussion 

The Slovakia is facing rapid population ageing and a growing burden of chronic diseases — especially oncological and cardiovascular conditions. The question is no longer how much healthcare costs, but how wisely we invest in it. Because spending on health is not an expense — it is an investment in our future. And in an increasingly digital environment, are our hospitals sufficiently protected against cyber threats that could compromise patient data, clinical operations, and public trust? Prevention, early detection, precision diagnostics, and data-driven decision-making are becoming essential pillars of sustainable healthcare systems.

The debate is no longer whether to digitalize, but how to implement innovation correctly, safely, and sustainably. How can technology reduce long-term costs through prevention? How can it improve hospital processes, strengthen patient trust, and enable more precise diagnosis and more effective treatment in oncology and cardiology?

Join our expert panel featuring representatives from:

• Siemens Healthineers – radiology innovation & cybersecurity
• Penta Hospitals – new approaches and innovative hospital process management in practice
• Unilabs – advanced laboratory &preventive diagnostics
• GlobalLogic Slovakia – digital innovation & technology development

Let’s move from strategy to action — and invest in a healthcare system that is resilient, data-driven, and ready for the future.
