Situación actual y balance de los archivos distritales del sector salud.

Abstract

The analysis of the current situation and balance of district archives is a process that involves the collection and analysis of data related to the behavior of these archives, considering governance environments, document management, as well as technological, organizational, occupational, and educational aspects within the district health sector. The objective was to analyze the current situation and balance of district archives in the health sector, employing a meta-analysis of the Bogotá Archive reports from 2018, 2019, and 2020. This quantitative research generated analyses of the factors and aspects of the archives to update the data. Key findings revealed a lack of organization and best archival practices regarding the processes and instruments used by entities in the health sector. This highlights the need for proper characterization within the district health sector in Colombia. The central conclusion emphasizes that, although entities have made progress in their document management processes, further development is necessary to improve the quality of these archives. Additionally, it is recommended to strengthen academic programs by updating curricula based on relevant characterizations.
