Vendor evaluation

What makes a healthcare AI vendor trustworthy enough for a hospital?

A hospital should trust a healthcare AI vendor only when four things are evidenced: institutional backing that survives a multi-year contract, a security posture you can audit (encryption, access control, audit trail, data residency), governance that keeps a doctor reviewing every AI output, and transparency you can verify like a published benchmark. Apply that checklist to any vendor. Micromeet is built to meet it — and its principle stays governed healthcare AI: AI writes. Doctors decide.

Trust is not a marketing claim; it is a checklist a hospital can apply to any vendor. First, institutional backing — will the company still be there in three years? Micromeet is the healthcare-AI company of Microware Group, listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange since 1985. Second, security posture: data encrypted in transit with TLS 1.3, role-based access control, a complete audit trail, group infrastructure certified to ISO/IEC 27001, and data residency options. Third, governance: every clinically meaningful AI output is reviewed and signed by a clinician, with a draft/approved distinction recorded.

Fourth, transparency — can you verify claims rather than take them on faith? Micromeet publishes its Medical Check-Up (MCU) benchmark so a hospital can inspect the methodology and results directly. No vendor should ask a hospital to trust a black box. The honest framing is not "we are the best" but "here is the evidence — check it, and check our competitors against the same bar."

What security standards should a hospital require from an AI vendor?+
At minimum: TLS 1.3 encryption in transit, role-based access control, a complete audit trail, recognized infrastructure certification such as ISO/IEC 27001, and clear data residency options matching local regulation.
Why does institutional backing matter when choosing an AI vendor?+
Clinical AI is a multi-year commitment touching patient data. A vendor backed by an established, listed group is far likelier to honor support, security, and continuity obligations than an unproven startup.
