Mini Track: ‘Evaluation of implementation, adoption and diffusion of IS in Healthcare (HCADI)

چکیده
Developing, implementing and using information technology in organisations is a complex social activity. It is often characterised by ill-defined problems or vague goals, conflicts and disruptions that result from organisational change. Successfully implementing information systems in healthcare organisations appears to be a difficult task. Information Technology is seen as an enabler of change in healthcare organisations but (information) technology adoption decisions in healthcare are complex because of the uncertainty of benefits and the rate of change of technology. Relevance and micro-relevance are seen as important determinants for IS success. The (lack of) adoption of IT traditionally found it’s reasons in resistance of the professionals in healthcare organisations but this is clearly changing in healthcare today. When implementing an information system in healthcare it is wise to focus on the success determinants relevance, resistance, requirements and resources. This new minitrack attracted papers on experiences with implementation of information systems in healthcare. Also more theoretical contributions on evaluation and IS success and adoption are encouragedns arising.
