Abstract

Digital innovation is an ongoing strategy that has drastically transformed businesses, communications, economies, and other facets of daily life. One of the domains that has seen a major technological shift is the healthcare system. This much needed change is encouraged and supported as it brings a plethora of merits for both workers and patients. However, numerous experts strongly believe that healthcare's digital transformation still has pitfalls to be dealt with. The transition to digital transformation is a difficult task because of healthcare's reliance on legacy technologies, as well as serious regulatory problems and security issues. This is why the aim of this research is to define digital healthcare and the most recent innovations to emerge from it. In addition to that, this research will highlight the challenges hindering digital healthcare from reaching peak performance and suggest some possible solutions for those as well. Finally, the authors think the results will be helpful in showcasing the major pitfalls of digital transformation in healthcare.
