KAGes developed a structured methodology for selecting a new hospital information system (HIS). This rigorous evaluation process involved extensive testing by end-users and IT experts to ensure an effective HIS purchase.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Information Systems Management

Background:

  • Krankenanstaltenges.m.b.H (KAGes), a state-owned company in Styria, Austria, manages 20 hospitals and serves approximately 1.2 million people.
  • KAGes initiated a project to acquire a new hospital information system (HIS) as part of its strategic IT plan, termed 'System Structure New' (SSN).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the methodology developed for an effective HIS purchase within the SSN project.
  • To detail the project management structure, evaluation criteria, and site organization for the HIS selection process.

Main Methods:

  • A multi-step evaluation process including requests for information, vendor proposal assessment, product presentations, and test site evaluations.
  • Involvement of approximately 60 teams comprising 400 end-users and IT experts to assess leading HIS products through repeated test sessions.

  • Reference site visits and selection of vendor finalists based on comprehensive evaluations.

    • Main Results:

    • Four major HIS vendors with leading products qualified for the evaluation stage.
    • Extensive assessment by a large cohort of end-users and IT experts provided data for decision-making.
    • The HIS purchase decision will be based on recommendations derived from the detailed evaluation process.

    Conclusions:

    • The implemented methodology ensures a thorough and effective selection of a new hospital information system.
    • Pilot installations are planned for 1999/2000, with a full system roll-out and legacy system substitution scheduled by 2003.
