This article explores the transformative impact of new technologies in e-health, focusing on enhancing patient empowerment and healthcare delivery. It underscores how artificial intelligence (AI) and other innovative technologies may redefine service standards, expand functionalities, boost clinician knowledge and competencies, and relieve clinicians’ workload, thereby enabling broader and more specialized healthcare services. Through a comparative analysis of technology applications in various medical sectors, the study proposes a new, original classification of new e-health technologies according to benefits to the main healthcare stakeholders – patients, clinicians, and the healthcare system itself. The methodology includes bibliographic research and a study of selected cases of technology implementations, discussing both theoretical and practical implications for medical organizations. The classification of new e-health technologies that we propose herein a clear framework for understanding the various ways in which these innovations can be implemented to maximize their benefits across different sectors of the healthcare industry.
