Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Healthcare Management
  • Information Systems

Background:

  • Case management, like all health services, is fundamentally information-dependent.
  • Effective implementation of computer information systems (CIS) is crucial for modern healthcare delivery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review financial, technical, and management issues encountered during the implementation of CIS in hospital-based case management programs.
  • To identify lessons learned and present software alternatives for specialized hospital programs.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of experiences from six hospital-based case management programs.
  • Review of key implementation challenges and their implications.

Main Results:
