DIGITALIZATION – ESSENTIAL FACTOR FOR INCREASING THE PERFORMANCE IN THE HEALTH FIELD

Summary/Abstract: The health system is made up of a set of independent components (but specialized and profiled) that are interdependent and allow ensuring the health of the individual, in families, groups and the community. In this regard, entities with attributions in the field of health are those that fulfil a mission that means more than diagnosing and curing diseases, they are those entities that must orientate their objectives to ensure everyone and everywhere a perfect state of health, a state of physical, mental and social well-being. Since the benefits of digitization are unanimously recognized in the sense of improving processes, increasing efficiency and effectiveness, reducing costs and digital transformation has progressed rapidly in the recent period, increasing the overall efficiency of the health sector can be achieved through the use of digital solutions.
