Healthcare professionals want to focus on patients, but growing waiting lists in Sweden make this increasingly difficult. Today, over 600,000 patients are waiting for care, with more than 200,000 exceeding the national healthcare guarantee. This reflects a well-known but unsolved challenge: how to efficiently allocate the right resources to the right patients while maintaining quality and safety.

This presentation introduces Locus Core, an advanced solution that uses real-time data and predictive algorithms to optimize scheduling and resource coordination in healthcare. It demonstrates why traditional planning systems are insufficient and how smarter allocation can improve both efficiency and patient outcomes.

Led by Marie Netz from Blekinge Institute of Technology and founder of Sownder, the session includes case studies from Swedish private, public, and outpatient settings, showcasing practical challenges.
