Assessment of the adoption of cloud computing system in the Nigeria healthcare sector

The Nigeria healthcare sector has potential for disruptive innovations that will help to raise the country's health outcomes using technologies such as cloud computing. However, lack of digitization hinders the effective delivery of healthcare services, making it difficult to track patient information, monitor treatment progress, and allocate resources effectively. This motivated the study to identify the specific healthcare services that can be improved through the adoption of cloud computing. In this study, a Figma software platform was used to design a prototype of the healthcare software while Java was used for building the healthcare software. The prototype can be found here bit.ly. Findings revealed that cloud computing has the potential to surpass existing systems in terms of telemedicine, scheduling, health status monitoring, laboratory testing, and interactive knowledge sharing. The study therefore recommended that the implementation of healthcare software can reduce administrative costs, improve patient outcomes, and enhance patient satisfaction.
