Аннотация

Digital transformation is increasingly recognized as a key factor in improving efficiency and service quality
in primary healthcare. This study conducts a systematic literature review using the PRISMA approach to examine the
factors influencing digital transformation and its impact on organizational performance. Relevant peer-reviewed studies
published between 2015 and 2025 were identified through a structured database search. The findings indicate that
digital transformation is shaped by technological, organizational, and environmental factors. In addition, transformation
processes play a mediating role in improving organizational performance. The review also highlights a significant research
gap in developing countries, including Uzbekistan, and provides a foundation for future empirical studies.
