Abstract: Abstract Healthcare organisations and systems worldwide are facing complex challenges due to the growing demand for health services which do not accompany growth in financial resources. This gap threatens healthcare today and its future sustainability. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated processes of change worldwide, especially in the medical field, forcing changes. This chapter will present a pilot qualitative study based on in-depth interviews with medical staff. The finding highlights digital transformation in healthcare organisations as a crucial process for achieving sustainability, efficiency, and better use of the system’s resources. Deepening and expanding knowledge of this topic may help decision-makers and managers to make system-wide decisions, adoption of efficient managerial tools, avoidance of resistance to change, and transformation of the system, so it is more efficient and sustainable.
