Research Question (RQ): The current crisis in the functioning of the healthcare System in Slovenia is not only a global phenomenon and the pathological factors but is a consequence of the (in)flexibility of the operation of the health care System overall, the impact of the economic, system and organizational principle of the process of development. It is necessary to admit that the activities of the digitization in the health care System of Slovenia happen. But we are not sufficiently successful. The reasons for this are purely in organisational and systemic. Is digitization in the health care system (HCS) in Slovenia implemented according to needs and expectations? Purpose: To study what are the obstacles that hinder the faster implementation of digitalization in HCS in Slovenia. Method: A comparative analysis was used of the theoretical starting points for systemic changes and practical insights into the introduction of digitalization in HCS in Slovenia. Results: As long as HCS in Slovenia cleans the anomalies that inhibit its development and growth, there will be problems in the implementation of systemic changes. Organization: Health policy is a key element that, through its inappropriate action, does not have a developmental impact on HCS. Society: The current inefficiency of the digitalisation of the HCS affects society in terms of inadequate conditions for the operation of the CVS and the deterioration of the social status of citizens. Limitations/Future Research: There is much needed research in the field of HCS systematic changes and digitalization.
