“Digital transformation is the key to patient-centered care and many structural challenges in our healthcare system. The new digital agency will work closely with payers, service providers and industry to take the existing telematics infrastructure and digital ecosystem to a new level,” said Fuhrmann.
Sibylle Steiner, board member of the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Practitioners (KBV): “With Dr. Florian Fuhrmann, an experienced specialist in legal healthcare, heads the new digital agency. That’s certainly nice.”
