Abstract

Innovation plays an important role in the functioning of various types of organizations.
A particularly sensitive element is the process of implementing innovations, which has its own specificity, especially in the case of technological innovations. In this context, the implementation of technological innovations in healthcare entities is becoming an interesting research area. The aim of the article is to evaluate the process of implementation of medical innovations. This process has been analyzed on the example of the Leszek Giec Upper Silesian Medical Center of the Medical University of Silesia in Katowice. The research carried out covers the period from August 2023 to January 2024, i.e. the period in which the hospital decided to start the process of implementing robotization to four medical scopes. On the basis of the presented case study, appropriate recommendations were formulated.
