Information and Communication Technologies as a competitive performance factor in health
Abstract
At present, it constitutes a priority the competitive performance elevation in health institutions. This exigence has a purpose to reduce the costs of healthcare and increase productivity, in a context where the demand for hospital services is increasing, due to the accelerated aging of the population and the increase in the costs of healthcare. Different researches have shown that with the use of Information and Communication Technologies, competitive performance in health can be increased. Within this, Process Mining allows to improve the execution of business processes, which it impacts the use of resources, as well as the times and satisfaction of the healthcare process. The objective is to analyze the impact that Information and Communication Technologies have, as a factor of competitive performance in health institutions, based on their evaluation in the XAVIA HIS Hospital Information System, through the application of Process Mining. The research has a qualitative approach, with explanatory scope and non-experimental design, where documentary analysis and modeling are used. It is applied to the Hospital Information System XAVIA HIS in 2019. For this, the Methodology was used for the application of process mining. As a result, a model adapted to reality and easily analyzed is obtained, which it is confirms the impact of Information and Communication Technologies in increasing competitive performance in health institutions.
Key words: Competitive performance; decision making; hospital efficiency; information and communication technologies; process mining.
