Its vision is to promote the efficiency and sustainability of health and social services through innovative technology, promoting equity, innovation, collaboration, transparency, and knowledge transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Foundation&#8217;s areas of expertise include Artificial Intelligence; mHealth and digital tools for citizens; digital skills for healthcare professionals; personalized care solutions; General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance; and more. By carrying out projects funded through competitive grants, the Foundation creates synergies with organizations across different European Union member states. It helps position the Catalan Health System as a model of technological innovation and digital transformation applied to social welfare and healthcare service delivery.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>Leveraging AI in Catalonia\u2019s healthcare system<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the priority areas in Catalonia is the promotion of AI, and for this reason, the\u00a0<strong>AI department\u00a0<\/strong>at TIC Salut Social Foundation is dedicated to coordinating\u00a0and executing the actions for the deployment of the\u00a0the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/iasalut.cat\/en\/programa-salut-ia\/\"><strong>Health\/AI Programme<\/strong><\/a>, promoted by the Ministry of Health of the Catalan Government. The goal of this program is to create an enabling environment for the implementation of AI solutions within the Catalan Health System, ensuring that these solutions are fully trustworthy: ethical, legal, and robust. This helps reduce inequities, standardize access to innovation, align solutions with global healthcare policies, and promote the transfer of knowledge to the Public Health System.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, we have made an important step in this field with the publication of the article&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/content\/388\/bmj-2024-081554\"><em>FUTURE-AI: International Consensus Guideline for Trustworthy and Deployable Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare in The BMJ<\/em><\/a>, a document that sets guidelines for the development of trustworthy and deployable AI in the healthcare sector. This article marks a significant advancement in the standardization of practices and principles that will enable the ethical and effective implementation of AI, aligned with the needs of the healthcare system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to our extensive experience in other European projects, our team is contributing to SEARCH tasks related to the&nbsp;<strong>design of frameworks that assess the credibility and safety of synthetic data used for AI model development<\/strong>. Drawing on our expertise in&nbsp;<strong>explainable and trustworthy AI<\/strong>, we will contribute with our efforts to make synthetic datasets are suitable for use in healthcare by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Applying explainability techniques to evaluate how synthetic data influences model behaviour.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supporting the development of metrics to benchmark data quality, fairness, and robustness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Contributing to bias detection and re-identification risk analysis using interpretable AI methods.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u><br>Driving Communication, Dissemination, and Standardization in SEARCH<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FTSS leads the&nbsp;<strong>Communication and Dissemination (C&amp;D)<\/strong>&nbsp;work package in the SEARCH project. Building on our experience in similar roles across other European initiatives, we coordinate a range of activities aimed at ensuring that the project&#8217;s objectives, progress, and results are clearly communicated to diverse audiences throughout the project&#8217;s four-year duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our C&amp;D efforts focus on engaging the wider public through&nbsp;<strong>industry events, conferences, scientific publications, press releases, and digital channels<\/strong>. We aim to maximize visibility and foster awareness of SEARCH by leveraging the whole consortium\u2019s extensive network and outreach capabilities to connect with relevant stakeholders and potential users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to C&amp;D, the Foundation is also responsible for guiding the project&#8217;s contributions to&nbsp;<strong>standardization<\/strong>. This includes identifying relevant existing standards and exploring opportunities to align SEARCH outcomes with ongoing European and international standardization efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>The Impact of SEARCH on the Foundation<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From our perspective, SEARCH can be a key catalyst for identifying and promoting technologies that enable the safe and effective use of synthetic data within the Catalan healthcare system. As a key driver of digital transformation in health and social care, the Foundation stands to benefit significantly from the solutions and knowledge developed in the project, which will enhance clinical decision support systems powered by AI models trained with synthetic data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, SEARCH represents a unique opportunity to explore and advance an emerging field through a pioneering approach. By combining our expertise in explainable and trustworthy AI with our deep understanding of the Catalan healthcare ecosystem, the Foundation is well positioned to help shape a more efficient, resilient, and patient-centered public health model.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":32899,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"etiqueta":[],"tipus":[],"topic":[],"class_list":["post-32898","noticia","type-noticia","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"autor":"","imatge":false,"textos_destacats":[{"texte":"By carrying out projects funded through competitive grants, the Foundation creates synergies with organizations across different European Union member states"}],"documents":false,"finalitzat":false,"tipus_plantilla":"objectius","template_objectius":{"cont_principal":"","imatge":false,"cont_seguent":{"titol":"","contingut":""},"seccio_llistat":{"titol":"","llistat":false},"objectius":{"titol":"","objectius":false},"documents":false}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The TIC Salut Social Foudation as a facilitator of digital transformation in Catalonia - Fundaci\u00f3 TIC Salut i Social<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ticsalutsocial.atoom.space\/en\/noticia\/ftss-as-a-facilitator-of-digital-transformation-in-catalonia\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The TIC Salut Social Foudation as a facilitator of digital transformation in Catalonia - Fundaci\u00f3 TIC Salut i Social\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The TIC Salut Social Foundation is a public body of the Catalonia Government (Generalitat de Catalunya) that works to facilitate digital transformation projects in the field of healthcare and social care.
