Abstract: The research examines the problem of the weak technical component in the digital model of healthcare quality management applied in developing countries. It provides a comparative maturity assessment of digital healthcare quality systems. As an original solution, it proposes supplementing this model with a new component: industrial and manufacturing engineering for MedTech. The research considers digital models of healthcare quality management through the lens of the engineering organization of medical services and MedTech infrastructure. The research demonstrates that improvements in the quality of healthcare are achieved not through individual digital services, but through a comprehensive architecture that includes electronic health records, telemedicine platforms, mobile solutions, digital data exchange channels, and analytical decision-support tools. Particular attention is paid to a comparative analysis of countries with highly digitalized healthcare systems, where the quality of medical services is supported through a combination of government platforms, private technological solutions, and a standardized regulatory environment. The practical significance of the research lies in the possibility of adapting the identified models to the design of national and regional digital healthcare platforms. The architecture of digital healthcare systems, including electronic health records, telemedicine platforms, and remote monitoring systems, is examined with regard to the distribution of functions among subsystems, data flows, and reliability parameters. Simple quantitative estimates of system response time, failure frequency, and service availability are provided and interpreted as operational characteristics of the MedTech engineering infrastructure.
