KNUST, GMTF explore AI partnership to transform healthcare delivery
The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) is exploring a partnership with the Ghana Medical Trust Fund (GMTF) to apply Artificial Intelligence (AI) and scientific innovation to healthcare delivery in Ghana.
Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) and Ghana Medical Trust Fund (GMTF) are collaborating to leverage Artificial Intelligence (AI) and scientific innovations to enhance healthcare delivery in Ghana. This potential partnership was explored during a working visit by a KNUST delegation, headed by the Pro Vice-Chancellor, Professor David Asamoah, on behalf of the Vice-Chancellor to the GMTF.
The talks centered on translating research and emerging technologies into practical solutions to tackle challenges within the health sector and improve patient outcomes. KNUST is seeking GMTF's support to establish a pilot program in selected health facilities and centers. The initiative aims to test AI-driven solutions in real healthcare environments, assessing their capacity to assist health professionals, boost service efficiency, and generate data to guide decision-making.
In addition to healthcare improvements, the two institutions discussed using AI to strengthen GMTF's internal operations. Specifically, they considered AI's potential to enhance data management, monitoring, coordination, and the efficient delivery of GMTF's interventions.
