Shaping AI-Driven Digital Transformation Strategy in HealthCare: The Case of Organ Donation and Transplant Digital Ecosystem Development

BI Expertise is developing a solution that leverages artificial intelligence technologies to improve organ donation. Due to the devolution of powers in Canada, organ donation is managed at the provincial level. In addition, information systems for organ donation are heterogenous between provinces. There is hence relatively little cooperation currently between provinces for interprovincial organ donation. The solution will open the way to providing donated organs in one province to potential recipients in different jurisdictions. But before this is possible, there are technical, legal, regulatory, cultural and ethical challenges that need to be addressed.
The current project will focus on the provinces of Quebec and Ontario and has the following objectives:
– Cartography the major stakeholders who would be involved in the development of an organ donation ecosystem between Quebec and Ontario, and map the regulatory framework(s) pertaining to the coordination of organ donation in and between the two provinces;
– Identify and describe the key regulatory, legal, ethical, and cultural challenges that can impede the development of the AI-based ecosystem for organ donation between Quebec and Ontario provinces;
