Updates on the research project

Information prepared on 15.02.2026.

SIA “Medon” and SIA “ForteMed” are implementing a research project within the framework of the Latvian Recovery and Resilience Mechanism Plan, Reform and Investment Direction 2.2 “Digital transformation and innovation of enterprises”, investment 2.2.1.3.i “Support for introducing new products and services in business”, implemented by the Competence Centre for Pharmaceutical, Biomedical and Medical Technologies SIA.  

Research project title: Development of a digital artificial intelligence solution “Virtual Doctor Assistant”; 
Research project number: F-DIGIT-12
Project No.: 2.2.1.3.i.0/1/24/A/CFLA/005

The objective of the project is to establish cooperation between SIA “Medon” and SIA “ForteMed” in order to develop an innovative digital artificial intelligence (AI) solution – the “Virtual Doctor Assistant” – that will significantly improve the efficiency of healthcare institutions. This AI tool will make the daily work of healthcare professionals easier by automating and structuring the processing of medical data and the preparation of documentation, analysing information entered in free form and converting it into a legally compliant format, as well as ensuring integration with existing systems, including "E-health". The “Virtual Doctor Assistant” will be practical, scalable and ready for implementation in family doctor practices, as well as in the outpatient and inpatient sectors.

During the period from 01.11.2025 to 31.01.2026, Activity 2 — Development of the initial concept of artificial intelligence (AI) operation was implemented, during which the following activities were carried out:
- a detailed analysis of LLM models for automating medical documentation;

- architecture solutions (local, cloud-based and hybrid solutions) were evaluated;
- the RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) approach and its application were defined; 
- a conceptual AI operating model with data flow, validation and quality control was developed.
A detailed analysis of several AI models was also carried out.
Activity result: A summary and analysis of AI tools in medical technologies, defining the project’s IT architecture, including the involvement of AI.

Project implementation period: 01.08.2025 to 31.01.2027.
Eligible project costs: 251 407.26 EUR Amount of support: 179 859.33 EUR
