BUSINESS ARCHITECTURE

Healthcare provider capability map

This capability map focuses on care delivery for a healthcare provider. It separates clinical care management from care coordination, then identifies treatment planning and care transitions as more specific abilities. It is deliberately not a department chart: one team may support several capabilities, and a capability can span several teams. Use this kind of map when setting transformation scope, evaluating systems or deciding where governance is needed. The labels should remain valid even if reporting lines, vendors or programmes change. Add patient access and provider operations only if they are material to the question being answered. Review the map with clinical and operational stakeholders so that the names reflect the service model rather than internal ownership.
