The level of internet information technology is reflected in its realization degree of integration between information systems and processes. This concept is defined as Information Systems (IS) integration, the degree to which data and applications are shared and accessed over different communication networks. In order to fully realize IS integration, ensure security of the massive medical data as well as efficient, smooth and real-time sharing, and to realize scientific analysis and processing, all the technologies including internet technology, cloud computing, Internet of Things, Data Analytics, and Blockchain should be utilized. This paper reviews the previous studies in this field and puts forward the related concepts. With the analysis of the literature on IS Integration, we find that the development of IS Integration of healthcare management and medical services is worthy of advocacy and promotion although there are still different obstacles to be overcome.
