Abstract:
This study investigated how digital technologies, such as electronic health records (EHRs) and
artificial intelligence (AI), changed the job of radiologic technologists. It emphasized the necessity
of ongoing professional growth to improve abilities and adjust to this changing environment,
despite of obstacles, including insufficient training, budgetary limitations, and cultural resistance.
The study examined efficient integration and patient management techniques focusing on
radiologic technologists in Metro Manila, Philippines. It suggested a professional development
program to improve healthcare delivery and increase diagnostic accuracy. The study, used a
descriptive correlational approach, looked at how radiologic technologists integrated, adapted, and
managed patients in a digital setting. Expert reviewers verified the questionnaire, which evaluated
patient management methods, the degree of digital tool integration, and the degree of adaptability
to these tools. The instrument's reliability and internal consistency were satisfactory during
reliability testing. Using a stratified random sample technique, radiologic technologists at Jose
Reyes Memorial Medical Center and Philippine Orthopedic Center in Manila were asked to
complete a questionnaire created by the researcher to gather primary data. According to the results,
the radiologic technologists are very skilled at integrating and modifying digital technologies, and
they consistently used efficient patient care techniques. The study did not, however, discover any
connection between patient management procedures and adaptation or the degrees of digital tool
integration and adaptation. The degree of integration and patient management techniques were
significantly correlated. These findings conclude that, even while radiologic technologists use
digital technologies efficiently, an action plan was developed and need to implement, monitor and
evaluate to sustain integration and adaptation in the digitalized patient management environment.
