ABSTRACT: The integrated management of multi-campus hospitals is essential for improving contemporary hospital management systems and facilitating the modernization of governance frameworks and management skills and is necessary for achieving optimal hospital development. From a systems theory perspective, the integrated management of multi-hospital campuses should be regarded as a cohesive and unified system to attain optimization and improvement. This necessitates improving institutional supply, maximizing organizational structure coordination, and reinforcing digital technology support. This study examines 55 tertiary A-level hospitals in Chongqing to comprehensively investigate the practical problems and limitations in advancing integrated administration of multi-hospital campuses. This text examines the implementation strategy for integrated management of multi-hospital campuses via the lens of systems theory and the “institution-structure-technology” paradigm, intending to offer theoretical perspectives and practical concepts to strengthen multi-hospital campus integration.
