| Abstract: | The healthcare system faces significant challenges, making healthcare transformation necessary. However, this is not easy. The literature on healthcare transformation is limited. This research aims to conceptually explaining healthcare transformation through the Grounded Theory Literature Review of Wolfswinkel et al. (2013) and the incorporation of Healthcare transformation Vodcasts. The Grounded Theory Literature Review is performed according to the five stages of Wolfswinkel et al. (2013). And in total 23 articles were included. In scientific literature, healthcare transformation is conceptualised as collaborations between and within all healthcare system levels. The definition depends on the theoretical lens, but all articles emphasise the importance of incorporating the complex system lens. With this dominant lens, healthcare transformation is defined as a planned continuous change by means of an intervention that aims at a system-wide change to improve the efficiency and quality of the healthcare system. Nine elements determine the healthcare transformation; collaboration, leadership, engagement, culture, communication, technology, vision, time, structure and trust. All these elements are important on and between all levels of the system. The process of healthcare transformation can be described in three continuous stages; 1) unfreeze the status quo, 2) build a movement to new arrangements, and 3) monitor and evaluate. |
