In the century of intense competition, the implementation of changes in the health care system would be essential to the organization's survival and ability to advance. Because science and technology are developing so quickly, the organization is unable to adjust. The trend of vital health change that would he occurred were good health maintenance, risk patient inquiry, illness prevention, and the initial stage of disease healing through the use of technology and innovation in diagnosing and curing patients.
