Computer Systems In Healthcare: Management and Strategy

Computer systems are essential to support the diverse activities of modern healthcare. Huge investment has been made, but benefits to patients and clinicians are not always clear. Many implementations have been total failures. There also are major security concerns. This book covers management and strategy issues necessary to implement healthcare systems successfully and safely. The book contains redacted examples of actual strategy documents produced for a healthcare organisation.

This is the first of two volumes. The second volume is concerned with the development and implementation of healthcare systems.
