In this paper we make an approach to the evolution of IST in healthcare, introducing the concepts associated with maturity models, addressing the generic maturity model for IST management and presenting the main maturity models specifically focusing on the management of IST in healthcare. Relatively to the last ones, we conclude that there is still a way to go for having available widespread and detailed maturity models.}, }
