Abstract

In the modern medicine and surgery, innovations arise from interdisciplinary work. Therefore, to analyse how telemedicine R&D is influencing strategies and organizational models in healthcare systems we have to study how ICT and robotics innovations can interact with structured healthcare services on a large scale. The problem is interdisciplinary, and the answer has to be on different levels: economical, technological, and organizational. Overall, change needs of two paradigms from telemedicine to telematic medicine and surgery and from financial strategies for saving to lean thinking for innovations. The innovation of value can be obtained when healthcare organization combines innovative telematic medicine and surgery services with utility, prices, and costs. To work on these innovations without rearranging the whole organizational flow around the future e-health service means inducing the healthcare organization to generate wastes and face unnecessary expenses attached to future healthcare processes with such high and probably unsustainable costs.
