A Literature Review of Digital Transformation in Healthcare

Digital transformation has reached out to every aspect of human lives, including personal and institutional provided healthcare. In order to inspect changes occurring in the healthcare domain due to digital transformation, a literature review is conducted. A systematic literature search in the Clarivate Analytics’ Web of Science database was carried out, along with the text mining in order to analyze the papers. The following attributes are considered for the classification and analysis of the papers: time component ; methodological approach ; research areas, and ; topic identification. Results revealed that the digital transformation of healthcare has just recently begun to induce more interest in the research community. Furthermore, a mixture of scholars’ profiles investigates the topic, including engineering and information scientists, as well as medical and healthcare service researchers. Additionally, by using text mining, we have identified four discourses of topics that are addressed in the literature when considering the digital transformation of healthcare. The interdisciplinary nature of the topic calls for the inclusion of diverse experts from the medical, informatics and public administration areas in order to advise proper government actions and stimulate the research field.
