Goal and impact
Target
The IGJ has limited capacity and therefore has to make targeted choices in supervising new healthcare providers. Based on the characteristics provided in the report form, an initial prioritisation is made to determine where additional supervision may be needed. This makes supervision more effective and efficient.
Impact
This prioritisation may result in an inspector requesting additional information or, for example, making a visit to further assess the situation.
Considerations
The use of business rules ensures systematic and easily followable initial prioritisation. Without this structure, selection remains too dependent on individual interpretations, increasing the risk of arbitrariness and making less effective use of capacity. Especially with a growing number of reports, this approach offers a practical way to get a clear picture of relevant characteristics and organise supervision in a targeted and consistent way
Human intervention
The algorithm makes an initial prioritisation to support the assessment of a report from a new healthcare provider. The final decision always lies with the inspector, who determines whether a visit to the provider or some other form of follow-up supervision is needed.
Risk management
The business rules are reviewed periodically and adjusted if necessary.
Legal basis
The legal basis is based on the Wtza. This law requires new healthcare providers to report to the CIBG. After this notification, the IGJ assesses the reporting forms and follow-up supervision is initiated if necessary.

Elaboration on impact assessments
There is no significant risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects. Therefore, no DPIA has been carried out.

Data
The business rules use the information from the notification form for new healthcare providers.
Technical design
Based on the answers and characteristics in the report form, a new healthcare provider is prioritised. First, it is determined whether the provider is under IGJ supervision. Then the relevant business rules are run through, which together determine the final priority. With each report, the score is made visible, including the characteristics on which this score is based. The business rules may differ per healthcare sector and are revised periodically where necessary to reflect developments in healthcare.
