Local AI for Hospitals: §203, HIS Integration and RAG
How hospitals connect local AI with the HIS, internal guidelines and scalable GPU infrastructure.

GDPR- and §203-Compliant Local AI for Hospitals
In hospitals, many teams access highly confidential patient data. We therefore run AI in your own data centre, with clear roles and a §203 framework.

The situation
What must be clarified before using AI
Discharge letters, tumour-board preparation and coding at large volume tie up clinical time.
External AI services extend the data and responsibility path. A local deployment can keep processing within the hospital's controlled infrastructure.
Many departments, many professionals: confidentiality runs through the entire institution.
Legal framework
GDPR- and §203-compliant local AI
We configure and operate AI Cube Pro for GDPR- and §203-compliant use when required. This includes controlled data paths, limited permissions, documented maintenance, the appropriate DPA and written secrecy obligations for the people involved.
What §203 StGB prohibits
§203 StGB protects confidential information entrusted by clients, patients and other parties. The necessary involvement of contributing persons is permitted. What matters is that access is limited to what is necessary, the people involved are bound to secrecy and the complete data and maintenance path is controlled.
Why cloud AI is the problem
With public AI services, inputs and documents leave your own infrastructure. Whether a service is suitable in a specific case therefore depends not only on a DPA, but also on data flows, subprocessors, access permissions and the actual use.
Why local processing helps
On-premises inference, local vector search and internally operated interfaces keep technical processing in your controlled environment. This reduces external data paths and subprocessors and allows access to be limited precisely.
Managed service with a secrecy obligation
When we provide setup or operations as a contributing person, the people involved accept a written secrecy obligation and are instructed about the criminal consequences. Where personal data is involved, this is combined with a DPA, limited administrative rights and documented maintenance paths.
What we deliver for it
These technical and contractual building blocks form part of the agreed §203 scope:
AVV
Data-protection layer
Written secrecy obligation
Secrecy and instruction on criminal consequences
Maintenance and access concept
necessary rights, logging and controlled paths
This content is general information and not legal or tax advice. The specific implementation under §203 must be reviewed professionally on a case-by-case basis.
Use cases
Where local AI can assist
These examples describe possible workflows. Data sources, permissions and professional review are defined for the concrete use case.
Doctor's/discharge-letter generation at large volume
Tumour-board and case-conference preparation
DRG coding support
RAG over internal guidelines, SOPs and hospital knowledge
Findings and documentation summarisation
Our approach
Advise. Build. Operate. From one team.
Sovereign AI is a lifecycle, not a device purchase - and everything stays on your infrastructure.
01
Advise & design
Workshop, sizing, data classification and §203 contract framework. We understand your stack, professional software and compliance requirements before we recommend.
02
Build & integrate
On-premise build on your hardware, RAG on your documents with access control, integration into your professional software, secrecy obligation + DPA.
03
Operate & maintain (optional)
Updates, monitoring, model upgrades and RAG maintenance as a service contract - or you operate fully yourself. Handover and knowledge transfer included.
From one house
The full service range for your local AI
From hardware and inference through RAG and integration to operations and security - no interface ping-pong between advice, build and operations.

Frequently asked questions
Yes, if models, updates, identity, knowledge sources and maintenance processes are designed for offline operation. We plan the required scope as a dedicated architecture.
For this, we size dedicated GPU servers or clusters based on models, context, user count and availability requirements. The AI Cube Pro is not the default hospital path.
After reviewing the available interfaces, permissions and actual workflow. A HIS connection is a separate integration project.
We usually deliver the AI Cube Pro fully preconfigured within two weeks after configuration approval. Professional-software connections, automated RAG pipelines or larger infrastructure are planned separately.
Common open-source LLMs (e.g. Llama, Qwen, Mistral, Gemma) on NVIDIA hardware - from the AI Cube as a GB10 appliance for a single practice to an RTX GPU server for larger institutions. No vendor lock-in; model choice follows your hardware.
We document data flows, roles, technical safeguards and operational responsibility. For a §203 scope, we conclude the appropriate DPA and require the people involved to accept a written secrecy obligation that includes instruction on the criminal consequences.
The AI Cube Pro costs €5,999 net including initial setup and five hours of support. Integrations and larger deployments are quoted separately; optional ongoing operations start at €149.90 net per month.
Yes. We hand over with documentation and train your team - you can operate fully yourself. Maintenance, updates, model upgrades and RAG upkeep are available optionally as a contract, but are not mandatory.

“While looking for a partner to integrate a local AI solution, we came across Timo and Robin - and could not have made a better decision. They quickly understood our requirements and solved technical challenges competently and pragmatically. We were particularly impressed by the straightforward collaboration, their high level of expertise and the speed of implementation. We are delighted to have Timo and Robin at our side as reliable business partners and look forward to our next projects together. (translated)”

“Communication with WZ-IT was open, friendly and professional from the very beginning. Mr. Wevelsiep and Mr. Zins responded to every one of our questions patiently, promptly and respectfully, and contributed their own suggestions and good ideas on how to modernize our server infrastructure and adapt it even better to our needs. Throughout, WZ-IT consistently kept our need for data sovereignty and GDPR compliance in mind. Even short-notice adjustments and change requests from our side were implemented quickly and patiently and integrated consistently into the overall concept. From planning to the final handover, every step was documented transparently and comprehensively - so if a provider change should ever become necessary, the documentation would let us onboard a successor into our infrastructure very quickly. We are extremely satisfied with WZ-IT and hope to continue working together for a long time.”
