Ensuring Interoperability in Procurement: Hospitals Driving the Change

The DGBMT (German Society for Biomedical Engineering) recommends that hospitals leverage their purchasing power to establish 'interoperability' as a mandatory criterion when procuring medical technology and IT systems. This change can be achieved by integrating it into the procurement process itself, rather than solely relying on new legislation.
