Towards Digital Era Governance? Examining Health Policy through the Lens of Public Administration / Digital Era Governance in der Gesundheitspolitik? Eine Analyse von Gesundheitsreformen aus verwaltungswissenschaftlicher Perspektive

Abstract

This paper examines the administrative dimension of digital health policy in Germany, focusing on the transformation of the Gematik and the capacity-building initiatives within the Ministry of Health. It highlights the shift from a public governance model to digital era governance and discusses the challenges of both vertical and horizontal integration. The study underscores the political nature of administrative reforms by distinguishing between various governance models and between governance as a structure and governance as a process. The findings emphasize the need for integrating public administration research into policy analysis to better understand the complexities of digital health governance.
