Palantir in the Hospital: Algorithmic Management Meets Patient Care

Traces how Palantir moved from intelligence-contracting roots into the operational core of health systems — from the NHS Federated Data Platform to scheduling and staffing deals with US hospital chains and radiology networks — and how that rollout collided with the realities of clinical work. The timeline runs from early data-integration pilots and pandemic-era contracts, through procurement and union pushback, to documented scheduling errors, staff burnout and patient-safety complaints, ending with the current fight over who audits and governs hospital algorithms.
