abstract={The healthcare system in Saudi Arabia is undergoing significant transformation as part of the Kingdom's 2030 initiative. This comprehensive literature review examined the perceptions and knowledge of Hail healthcare providers regarding the ongoing health transformation system. A systematic analysis was conducted on peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 and 2023, focusing on healthcare providers' awareness, attitudes, and readiness towards various aspects of the transformation, including electronic health records, telemedicine, artificial intelligence integration, and quality improvement initiatives. The review synthesises findings from 35 relevant studies and presents key themes through tables and figures. The results indicate varying levels of knowledge and acceptance among different healthcare specialities, with generally positive perceptions of digital health technologies but concerns about implementation challenges. Notably, there is a significant knowledge gap regarding specific national healthcare transformation policies among healthcare providers in Ha'il City. This review also highlights the need for targeted educational programs and change management strategies to facilitate the successful adoption of new healthcare practices. This study provides valuable insights for policymakers and healthcare administrators to address potential barriers and optimize the implementation of the health transformation system in Ha'il and similar regions of Saudi Arabia.},
