[Interpersonal communication as a factor in successful development of a decision-oriented information systems model...

The success of a decision-oriented hospital information system is primarily depending on the way of integration of the involved professionals in the development. The technical realisation of those systems is already supported by several tools. Interpersonal interactions on the other hand which take about 40 percent of the time of development are still methodically ignored. The medVista method promotes the active integration of all persons involved and supports the realisation of a technological model simultaneously. Substantial corrections usually arising after implementation are no longer necessary and the system will be accepted by users.
