Organizational mechanisms for managing the innovative potential of a healthcare institution

Abstract

In the contemporary healthcare environment, the innovative potential of a healthcare institution has become a strategic determinant of its sustainability, competitiveness, and capacity to respond to complex public health challenges. Rapid technological development, digital transformation, changing patient expectations, workforce shortages, and financial constraints require healthcare organizations to move beyond traditional administrative models toward more adaptive and innovation-oriented management systems. In this context, organizational mechanisms for managing innovative potential should be understood as an integrated set of structures, processes, managerial tools, and institutional conditions that enable the generation, selection, implementation, and scaling of innovations.
