| Abstract (ENG): |
Diagnostic Decision Support Systems (DDSS) represent a
critical technology for providing high-quality, evidence-based, and efficient
care in modern healthcare systems. Integrating artificial intelligence
(AI) into such systems offers promising ideas, but also introduces
complex challenges, particularly in pricing. This study examines how
pricing models for AI-enabled DDSS in Germany should be designed to
meet economic, regulatory, technical, and ethical requirements. A structured
evaluation framework is developed based on a systematic analysis
of existing pricing models, a market overview of manufacturers, and consideration
of technological and regulatory frameworks (e.g., EU-AI-Act).
The findings indicate that hybrid and usage-based leasing models are especially
promising, as they offer flexibility, scalability, and transparency.
However, the growing complexity of AI inference processes requires the
development of new metrics to evaluate the added value of such systems.
The study emphasizes the need for sustainable pricing strategies that
incorporate data protection, certification processes, technical infrastructure,
and user acceptance. The results offer practical implications for
providers, service providers, and policy makers. |
