Digitalization Strategy In The Healthcare Sector Of Qatar: A Field Descriptive Study On Its Impact On The Delivery Of Health Services In Selected Public And Private Institutions .

Authors : El Bachari Khalida .

Abstract

This study aims to illuminate the core principles that underlie the digitization of the healthcare sector, a critical arena for countries seeking to advance their healthcare institutions and elevate service quality. Digitization, with its precision in health data, emerges as a vital tool for regulatory bodies to exert a degree of control over normal health scenarios and particularly during health crises. The study uncovers the strides taken by certain Arab nations, notably Qatar, in realizing digitization objectives. The findings underscore the presence of well-defined standards for implementing the digitization strategy in Qatar's healthcare sector. These standards encompass the adoption of a digital national health card for patients, the alignment of sector-specific methods with prevailing global digitization trends and a dedicated emphasis on monitoring and research to foster development and competition within both private and public healthcare sectors.
