There is another critical step that often remains invisible: public procurement. How do healthcare systems decide which technologies to adopt? How does innovation move from the lab into real clinical practice? And what role does value-based procurement play in the future of in silico medicine? In this episode, we speak with Rossana Alessandrello, Value Based Procurement Director at AQuAS – Agència de Qualitat i Avaluació Sanitàries de Catalunya, about the complex pathway connecting innovation, healthcare systems, and patient impact. A thoughtful conversation on one of the most important and least discussed aspects of healthcare innovation. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-digital-twin-theory-7076419/episodes/episode-23-making-innovation-come-true-with-rossana-alessandrello/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-digital-twin-theory-7076419/episode-23-making-innovation-come-true-with-rossana-alessandrello.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
