Abstract

This article makes an integrative review of the state of the art in the application of Business Intelligence solutions in health care, both in the provision of care and in the management of healthcare institutions. To this end, a survey of scientific articles, published between 2018 and 2022, relating the terms of “Business Intelligence” and “Health” was carried out at b-On, with a result of 26 articles, 16 related to the provision of care and 11 associated with management. These showed the prevalence of solutions in a high number of clinical areas, such as cardiology, neurology, radiology, or pathology, and of management, from the scheduling of exams, human resources management or performance analysis, demonstrating the high potential of this type of solutions in the healthcare sector.
