Abstract

Objective: This study aims to explore and analyze the innovations in hospital management that have emerged in response to the rapidly evolving healthcare landscape. The focus is on technological advancements, human resource optimization, and patient-centered care strategies that enhance operational efficiency and improve patient outcomes. Methods: A comprehensive literature review was conducted to identify and synthesize relevant studies on hospital management innovations. The review covered a broad range of sources, including peer-reviewed journals, conference papers, and industry reports. Key themes were identified and categorized into technological innovations, organizational reforms, process improvements, and patient-centered care strategies. Results: The review highlights several significant innovations in hospital management. Technological advancements, such as the adoption of Electronic Health Records (EHRs), telemedicine, and artificial intelligence (AI), have streamlined administrative processes and improved data-driven decision-making. Organizational reforms, including team-based care models and leadership strategies that prioritize employee engagement, have enhanced staff productivity and patient care quality. Patient-centered care innovations, such as care coordination frameworks and patient engagement technologies, have led to more holistic and personalized healthcare delivery. Conclusion: The study concludes that continuous innovation in hospital management is crucial for addressing the challenges of modern healthcare. The integration of technology, effective human resource management, and patient-centered care strategies are key to improving hospital operations and patient outcomes. Future research should focus on overcoming barriers to innovation implementation, such as resistance to change, financial constraints, and interoperability issues, to ensure the successful adoption of these advancements.
