مستخلص: | Introduction: The increasing frequency of pandemics, demand for healthcare and costs of healthcare services require efficient health systems with integrated care via a command centre that ensures a centralised and coordinated approach to exercise effective leadership. Description: We present a case study using the conceptual framework of Franklin to describe the novel system-based engineering approach of the Saudi National Health Command Centre (NHCC) including its features and outcomes measured. Discussion: The NHCC is structured into four departments and four zones with real-time data integration and visualisation on 88 dashboards. To empower leadership, it harnesses artificial intelligence affordances such as machine learning algorithms to enhance functionality, decision-making processes and overall performance. This allows for the rapid assessment of available resources and to monitor healthcare system efficiency at diverse levels of clinical and system indicators. Enhanced proactive capacity management has contributed to reducing lengths of stay, average supply chain lead time and surgery waiting list; early bending of the COVID-19 curve resulting in a low mortality rate; increasing bed capacity; deploying medical staff and mechanical ventilators rapidly; rolling out the COVID-19 vaccination programme and improving patient satisfaction. Conclusion: Integrating a healthcare system with a command centre provides healthcare leaders with the necessary infrastructure to create synergy between people, processes and technologies. This substantially improves both patient and service outcomes. It also allows for immediate care coordination and resource allocations and safeguards ease of access to care.
