Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This qualitative case study investigates the main barriers that arise during digital transformation (DT) of public hospitals. Based on a thematic analysis of 29 interviews with informants leading DT or implementing digital initiatives in a public hospital in Canada, we found that the main barriers hindering DT were: fragmented digital leadership, competing strategic priorities, insufficient resources, limited inter-departmental collaboration and digital literacy gap between professionals.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
