Healthcare Information System Modelling
نویسنده
چکیده
This chapter studies the requirements for a wide range of healthcare information systems, including, but not limited to, clinical pathways management, patient record management, home care management, and medical personnel and resource management. The analysis concentrates on the description and management of medical activities, leaving aside the standard management processes common to all enterprises. It develops a generic architecture for these information systems comprising four central submodels devoted to the description, respectively, of organizational structures, care processes, information, and resources. Each submodel is analysed independently of the others then integrated into a consistent global model. Extensions of this model to other facets of the healthcare information system are discussed and some practical applications are suggested.

متن کاملToward an integrated simulation approach for predicting and preventing technology-induced errors in healthcare: implications for healthcare decision-makers.
Research has indicated that health information technology has the potential to reduce medical error and the chances of an adverse event occurring. However, research has indicated that poorly designed systems may inadvertently lead to error (technology-induced error). In this paper, we describe our most recent work in developing a new framework for the integration of multiple forms of simulation...
