Reference Digital Model of the IT-Architecture of a Medical Organization

Abstract:

At the present stage of modern technologies development, many companies are focusing on using end-to-end digital technologies (Internet of things, blockchain, big data, machine learning, etc.) to implement their IT strategy. Digitalization is changing the way business is conducted as part of the production of an end product or service based on the use of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, intensive data exchange and analytical systems. However, the technological application of end-to-end digital technologies alone is not enough. To profit from digitalization, it is necessary to introduce innovative business models, for example, the transition to business models with advanced services. Medical organizations are no exception. The main problems in the digital transformation of medical organizations are the company's unpreparedness for organizational changes, as well as an insufficiently well-developed IT strategy and business model that should precede the start of the implementation of digital projects. Reforming the activities of medical organizations, caused by the need to introduce end-to-end digital technologies, requires analysis and reengineering of the business process system and the formation of the company's IT strategy. To solve these problems, it is necessary to form a reference model of the IT architecture of a medical organization. The methodological basis of the study is an analysis of the literature on the research problem, generalization and systematization of data, and an architectural approach. The result is the construction of a reference model of the IT architecture of a medical organization, taking into account modern digital technologies.
