AQuAS launches two preliminary market consultations to identify AI-based solutions that improve public health

Within the framework of the Health/AI Program, AQuAS has opened two preliminary market consultations to identify solutions based on Artificial Intelligence. The first to improve adherence to pharmacological treatments. The second to provide support for the diagnosis and monitoring/secondary prevention of stroke.

The purpose of the procedures is to know the current or potential availability of options and collect information to define the future procedure of each tender, guaranteeing the participation of the maximum number of interested entities.

Entities interested in participating must read the rules and complete the questionnaires for each of the preliminary market consultations.

Improving therapeutic adherence

The consultation is open to digital solutions marketed for improving therapeutic adherence. This includes digital assistants and advanced analytics tools for estimation, risk characterization and prediction of non-adherence. Also digital solutions that empower patients to control their health and optimize medication management and, finally, commercial solutions that allow predicting the risk of clinical events of interest related to medication optimization.

How to participate

From Monday 17th to 31st March 2025 (inclusive), entities interested in participating must complete the online questionnaire which will allow the availability of solutions to address the needs raised to be assessed, as well as their maturity and viability to be adopted. Companies that have responded to the questionnaire may request an optional 30-minute virtual meeting on April 2, 3 and 4 to present their proposal to the project team (AQuAS, Fundació TIC Salut Social, Consorci de Salut i Social de Catalunya and Servei Català de la Salut).

All information is available at Public Procurement Services Platform of the Generalitat of Catalonia (PSCP).

It is also expected to help Primary and Community Care (PCC) professionals in the approach to the strategy of secondary prevention and control of vascular risk factors, based on the optimization of etiological diagnosis in the acute phase.
