Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) Implementation: Implications for the Future of Digital Transformation in Philippine Healthcare

The COVID-19 pandemic is raising concerns all around the globe, as many lives have been lost and families have been left without hope. The Digital Era has started, and many sectors, including healthcare, are adapting to the innovative human-machine integration that has developed. However, the new systems still offer benefits and limits that will influence certain nations' choice to accept this platform owing to their unique requirements and circumstances. The earliest electronic health records were developed in the early 1960s to store long-term patient data. However, it was not maintained since the system's foundation is very demanding, and medical practitioners stopped utilizing it. After a decade, the growth of technology was unavoidable, gradually altering areas such as business and healthcare. However, every development has ramifications. The implementation of the new system may enhance organizational performance, but there are still uncertainties, notably about sustainability and how it will affect the firm in the future. Now, sufficient medical documentation has long been a source of contention in the healthcare industry, and management should begin introducing new processes to address the underlying problem. If the government already has a system in place to ensure the country's long-term existence, this system should be used to ensure the consistency of each patient's medical records. Will an Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) adaptation in the Philippines, a third-world nation with a poor healthcare system, be the best option to modify and enhance medical care quality?
