Abstract

Background: Advanced health technologies that emerge with the development of technology have an impact on health systems. This study aimed to determine the effects of these technologies on Türkiye's health system and present policy recommendations to reshape Türkiye's health system and policies accordingly.

Methods: Interviews were conducted with senior managers, bureaucrats, policy-makers and decision-makers from seven different institutions on the subject. Content analysis was performed on the data obtained and evaluative categories were established.

Results: It was concluded that these technologies would not have a positive impact on two identified themes, a negative impact on seven themes and a predominant impact on five themes in Türkiye.

Conclusions: To adapt to the new health ecosystem in Türkiye, it is recommended to increase digital literacy, conduct economic evaluations of technologies, promote domestic production, ensure up-to-date follow-up, collaborate with the engineering field, enhance health technology evaluation practices, improve access to technologies and ensure that the infrastructures of health institutions are compatible with technologies. Various policy suggestions have been presented for the development of Türkiye's health system.

期刊介绍： Health Research Policy and Systems is an Open Access, peer-reviewed, online journal that aims to provide a platform for the global research community to share their views, findings, insights and successes. Health Research Policy and Systems considers manuscripts that investigate the role of evidence-based health policy and health research systems in ensuring the efficient utilization and application of knowledge to improve health and health equity, especially in developing countries. Research is the foundation for improvements in public health. The problem is that people involved in different areas of research, together with managers and administrators in charge of research entities, do not communicate sufficiently with each other.
