Abstract

The ongoing COVID-19 crisis has been a challenge for healthcare around the world. This article investigates which countries have conditions favorable to the provision of innovative global healthcare solutions. First, an index based on internet connectivity - as an indicator for digitization and advances in AI - as well as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) - as indicator for economic productivity - is calculated to outline global healthcare innovation hubs with economic impetus around the world. A comparison of countries worldwide shows that advances in AI can be positively correlated with the absence of corruption. Second, a new anti-corruption artificial healthcare index is therefore presented that highlights those countries in the world that have vital AI growth in a non-corrupt environment. These non-corrupt AI centers hold comparative advantages to lead on global artificial healthcare solutions against COVID-19. A third index combines internet connectivity, the level of corruption, and healthcare access and quality. The countries that score high on AI, the absence of corruption and healthcare excellence are promoted as the foremost innovative global pandemic alleviation leaders. The advantages but also potential shortfalls and ethical boundaries in new uses of monitoring Apps, big data inferences and telemedicine to prevent pandemics are discussed.
