Abstract
Background: Adopting information and communication technology (ICT) widely is a crucial tactic to address the issues that global health systems face, including rising costs, shrinking resources, and a shortage of workers. ICT investment has increased quickly, but adoption and acceptability have lagged, and the benefits have not been as great as anticipated. A multi-site assessment of how ICT might promote and drive creative work practices has been missing from the research literature. The global healthcare system has been significantly impacted by the digital revolution. The efficiency of care, health outcomes, workflow, and diagnosis and treatment accuracy could all be significantly enhanced by digital technology. The outcomes for patients will significantly improve with the use of health information technology. Purpose: This study aims to measure the readiness for digital health transformation in the government health sector in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia in relation to Saudi Vision 2030 based on the four dimensions adopted by the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society: person-enabled health, predictive analytics, governance and workforce, and interoperability.
