THE USE OF COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY IN HEALTHCARE INSTITUTIONS

Abstract

The integration of computer technology in healthcare institutions has significantly transformed medical practices, patient management, and research methodologies. From Electronic Health Records (EHRs) to artificial intelligence-based diagnostics, the use of computers enhances efficiency, accuracy, and patient care outcomes. This paper explores the various applications of computer technology in healthcare, its benefits, challenges, and future potential. A detailed analysis is presented through statistical data, tables, and graphical illustrations of patient case trends and technological impact. Additionally, we discuss security concerns, ethical implications, and policy frameworks required for seamless integration.
