Abstract:
Healthcare information systems are crucial to the effective and efficient delivery of healthcare, to the performance of healthcare organizations and to patient care and welfare. Medical information systems drive and impact many aspects of the healthcare system, including structure, economics and performance. This book reports on the implementation of these systems, looking at both the success stories as well as the reasons for failure in the design, development and implementation of these systems.
