The impact of collaboration strategy in the field of innovation on the effectiveness of organizational structure of healthcare institutions

Abstract

The need for innovative development of healthcare institutions is determined by the necessity to increase the efficiency of organizational processes based on the formation of new models of cooperation, which will make it possible to get access to new technologies and knowledge. The goal of the study is to determine the parameters of the impact of innovative open cooperation strategy and the strategy of innovative closed cooperation of healthcare institutions on the effectiveness of their organizational structure in the context of dissemination and the use of knowledge. Simulation modeling was applied to generate the most effective organizational management structure in the context of innovative cooperation and knowledge exchange within the organizational processes “Inside-out” and “Inside-in”. It is substantiated that the strategies of innovative cooperation “Open Innovation/Closed Innovation” have a significant impact on the organizational structure of management of healthcare institutions in terms of the “degree of centralization” (Dci), “degree of mediation” (Dii), and “degree of centralization of powers” (Dpi). The values of the selected criteria range from 25,52% to 61,50% in the case of Dii, and from 34,53% to 52,63% in the case of Dci, which indicates a higher efficiency of organizational knowledge exchange processes in healthcare institutions, which adhere to the Open Innovation strategy of innovative cooperation. Therefore, there are significant differences in the effectiveness of the management’s organizational structure depending on the degree of openness of innovative cooperation of healthcare institutions. The strategy of innovative openness allows increasing the number and quality of connections in the context of knowledge exchange between the subjects (actors, agents) of the organizational structure (in a broad sense, considering internal and external levels of externality) of healthcare institutions, regardless of the distance between them and the level of similarity.

“…We also explored the association between self-reported measures and individuals' eye movements in predicting anxiety scores. As the healthcare industry is in need of innovative development to increase efficiency (Grynko et al, 2020), our result explored a possible innovation that may help clinicians during patient visits that enrich self-reported measures information.…”

Stand-alone or run together: artificial intelligence as an enabler for other technologies

“…Operationalizing the conceptual framework in the context of technology entrepreneurship Technological change management in healthcare is not merely about adopting new technologies but also involves the necessary adaptations and evolutions in organizational structures, processes and strategies (Benner, 2009;Grynko et al, 2020). Our conceptual framework operationalizes these academic discussions by identifying how healthcare organizations can strategically deploy "AI facilitators" to establish a robust technological base.…”

“…The global COVID-19 pandemic caused many new challenges to overcome and pose a huge risk of global health targets' achievement (Lee & Kim, 2021). Access to new technologies and knowledge and innovative development of healthcare institutions are important to achieve SDG 3 successfully (Grynko et al, 2020).…”
