Bogi Eliasen[edit]

Bogi Eliasen is a keynote speaker and futurist dedicated to the equitable future of healthcare. He believes healthcare should be freely and readily available to all no matter their nationality, gender or ethnicity. Eliasen was awarded the HIMSS Future 50 Global Award in recognition of his work with transforming healthcare, as he pushes an agenda of equity and telehealth globally. [1] [2] [3]

Eliasen was the initiator and Director of the first population genome project: FarGen [4] [5] [6] but is now better known for his work as a futurist.

In his current capacity as Director of Health at the Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies, Eliasen explores a range of future-centric topics. His methodology embraces a holistic vision that strives to use technoly to forge a more equitable future in personalised and preventive healthcare.[6] [7][1][8] [3][9]

His latest Nordic Health 2030 initiative, advocates for a transformative shift from the traditional sick-care model to an integrated approach that emphasises prevention-driven and data-driven strategies. This shift is intended to provide universal direct access to healthcare and ensure equitable health outcomes for all individuals, irrespective of gender, background, or location. [9]

Central to Eliasen's thinking is:

The 5/5 Aspiration: This concept seeks to rebalance healthcare spending, advocating for an equal distribution between early intervention/prevention and late-stage treatment.

The Humanome Data Model: Designed to enhance personalised and preventive health services by maximising the usability of data and empowering individuals with access to and control over their own health data.

The Sustainable Health Model: This model aims to optimise the flow of health and health-relevant data among individuals, organisations, and health systems to provide real-time health insights and significantly enhance the efficacy of healthcare systems and the overall health of populations.

Eliasen's ambitious goals, could prove to be too idealistic given the existing institutional rigidity within global healthcare systems and organisations. Critics often contend that the radical shifts he proposes might face significant barriers to implementation. Eliasen's response is to push back harder repeatedly asking leaders to take responsibility and start preparing for the future. Eliasen contends that the need for a paradigm shift from sick to preventive care is evident. Still, healthcare systems are mostly oriented towards medicines and hospital care while expenditure on prevention is marginal.[10] [9] [11]

Eliasen's commitment to a preventive, data-driven healthcare model challenges the status quo and pushes the boundaries of what is currently perceived as feasible. By aiming high, Eliasen continuously stimulates much-needed discussions on how healthcare systems can truly evolve and become sustainable.
