The telematics infrastructure: a development in the healthcare sector
The planned connection of commercial dental laboratories to the telematics infrastructure (TI) from mid-2024 represents an important development in the healthcare sector. At MINDFAB, we recognize the relevance of this development and take a differentiated, objective view of it.
This is a significant change which can bring both challenges and opportunities for the healthcare business.

Digital advances in dentistry - the need for telematics infrastructure
The healthcare industry is undergoing significant change. We at MINDFAB see the impending connection to the TI as part of this change.
This development holds potential for improvements in communication and data processing, although its full impact is yet to be explored.

Financial and technical challenges: a balanced view
Although connecting to the TI may require financial and technical adjustments, there are also indications that many laboratories are already using similar systems. As assessed by laboratory representatives, the changeover appears feasible at first glance.
MINDFAB would like to point out that although this change will require adjustments, these can be implemented within the existing operational structures.
The role of partnerships and preparations
Collaboration between software providers and dental laboratories is becoming increasingly important. There are already platforms which support digital exchange, and future developments could offer further improved solutions.
At MINDFAB, we emphasize the importance of proactively engaging with the upcoming change in order to be well prepared.
MINDFAB's balanced perspective
As an independent voice in the health care business, our aim is to provide a balanced and objective view of the upcoming changes.
We base our reporting on reliable sources such as REBMANN RESEARCH and expert statements, for example from Till Stadermann, as well as various opinions within the industry to provide a comprehensive picture.
Industry perspective: a varied picture
There are differing opinions on the TI connection in the dental industry. While some laboratories express concerns about the technical requirements and costs, others see this development as manageable.
This diversity of opinions is important for a comprehensive understanding of the situation.
Telematics infrastructure (TI) - future orientation and adaptability
Despite a certain degree of caution, we at MINDFAB recognize the importance of digitalization in the healthcare sector. The connection to the telematics infrastructure (TI) offers the opportunity to optimize existing processes and act in a future-oriented manner.
Proactive information gathering and preparation can make this transition easier.
Conclusion
Connecting to the telematics infrastructure is a complex issue. At MINDFAB, we believe it is important to stay well informed and maintain a balanced perspective.
This will help to prepare appropriately for the challenges and opportunities ahead.
