AI Governance for a University Hospital

AI Governance Lead

A university hospital sought to deploy AI applications in diagnostics, documentation and patient services — from triage assistance to text classification and decision support. A governance framework integrating GDPR, medical device law and the EU AI Act was absent.

Approach

Development of an institution-wide AI governance framework with risk classification, validation processes and defined roles — compliant with the EU AI Act and MDR, and operable in a clinical context.

Outcomes

  • Institution-wide AI governance framework with defined roles and processes
  • Risk classification of all planned AI applications under the EU AI Act
  • Validation and review processes established for new AI deployments
  • Improved auditability vis-à-vis regulatory authorities

Outcomes

  • Target vision for AI and Data architecture fully formalised
  • Reference architectures for scoring, fraud detection and advisory workloads
  • Integration and security architecture documented
  • Phased implementation roadmap with clear decision points
