Abstract

This study aims to provide an overview of research related to ambulatory care centers by mapping its outputs. The methodology used in this research is a bibliometrics study based on the Scopus database from 2001 to 2020. The analysis was conducted using Harzing Publish and Perish and VOSviewer to generate visualization data. A total of 145 papers from the scientific database were analyzed. The results show that there is still a lack of research being conducted regarding ambulatory care centers, particularly on their potential for information dissemination and the prevention of COVID-19 cases. The analysis provides a new perspective on the concept of ambulatory care centers in healthcare management. Finally, the analysis identifies potential baseline research that can be established before initiating ambulatory care center research for future studies.
