Digitalization Of Document Management System In Medical Organizations: Theoretical Aspect

Introduction. Modern medical organizations, multifunctional medical centers, public and private medical institutions actively use digital technologies such as document management systems to optimize internal business processes and increase the efficiency. Proper document management and easy access improve the workflow. Thus, integration and development of advanced digital products allow medical organizations to ensure efficient time management which, in turn, reduces costs and saves time.

The purpose of the study was to present theoretical aspects of digitalization of document management system in medical organizations as a modern organizational and managerial process that ensures the effectiveness of healthcare development.

Materials and methods. Content analysis of scientific literature on the development and implementation of document management systems, transfer of documents to electronic version, introduction of digital technologies upon the specifics of medical organizations was used.

Results. The study showed that document management systems currently run up document-based information lifecycle management. Their active implementation began in the 2000s, and it is expected that the market volume of document management systems will grow from 6.57 billion US dollars in 2023 to 12.94 billion US dollars by 2028, on average by 14.50% during the forecast period (2023-2028). Significant amounts of health data are collected manually using various internal IT-systems and numerous collections of documents, databases and forms. The introduction of document management systems allows healthcare actors to create electronic patient records, thereby minimizing the risk of documentation loss and increasing security. It is assumed that in the near future all the system will be based on digital solutions aimed at solving routine tasks such as document management, storage and use. These trends provide solutions to the problems that medical organizations may face and ensure effective strategies based on the digitalization of document management systems.
