Synopsis

The book “Health 4.0: management, technology, and transformation of the healthcare sector in Latin America” is a collective work that brings together interdisciplinary contributions aimed at strengthening health management from a contemporary, critical, and innovative perspective. Comprising eleven chapters written by authors from various academic institutions and health professionals in Latin America, this volume addresses the main challenges facing health systems today, such as institutional governance, service quality, digital transformation, public ethics, the emotional well-being of healthcare personnel, and organizational sustainability. Organized into five thematic areas, the text offers a comprehensive view of health administration, combining theoretical analysis, case studies, management tools, and proposals for innovation in real contexts. The work emphasizes the need for management that is centered on human values, adaptive to the complexity of the environment, and sensitive to the social, technological, and ecological challenges of the 21st century. The book’s pluralistic and Latin American approach provides a valuable tool for students, teachers, researchers, managers, and decision-makers interested in transforming healthcare institutions based on evidence, ethics, and social commitment. This text seeks to contribute to the strengthening of more equitable, resilient, and inclusive healthcare systems, connecting academic thought with the realities experienced in the field of public healthcare management.
