Effectively optimize radiology capacities with a workflow simulation

Oulu University Hospital

Siemens Healthineers and Oulu University Hospital in Finland have entered a strategic partnership for the next ten years, adding to an existing radiotherapy collaboration to jointly expand and modernize the radiology department. This Value Partnership includes the supply, installation, and maintenance of medical imaging technology and software, training and further education of staff, a flexible financing concept and consulting services to increase process efficiency and improve the value chain of clinical care. A joint research approach and an enhanced collaboration to develop new solutions and treatment methods are also part of the scope of work. This partnership was initiated in the context of the renewal program of the Oulu University Hospital facilities, which will lead them to aim at being one of the most innovative and modern hospitals in the world by 2030. The common goal of the partnership is to ensure high-quality care throughout the region, improve clinical processes and increase attractiveness as a healthcare employer. The contract has an option to be extended for ten more years. The volume amounts to around 30 million euros.

“We are building a new University Hospital in Oulu. Our vision is to be the smartest hospital in the world by 2030, where the latest technology, modern facilities, and up-to-date know-how will guarantee efficient and best-quality care delivery. This Value Partnership is one of the cornerstones for achieving this vision.”
