Health Information Technology and Healthcare Information System

Health Information Technology (HIT)
Health Information Technology, commonly called HIT, integrates advanced information systems and technology in healthcare settings. Its primary functions include:
Integrated Healthcare System01:20

Integrated Healthcare System

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...
Nursing Clinical Information System01:27

Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:
Nursing Implementation01:15

Nursing Implementation

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.
Purpose of Health Records I01:11

Purpose of Health Records I

The vital purpose of health records is to provide a complete and accurate account of a patient's medical history, including communication, diagnostic and therapeutic orders, care planning, research, and quality review.
Here's a breakdown of how health records serve these purposes:
Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System01:26

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is limited...

Published on: February 19, 2021

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Information Systems Research
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • Healthcare information systems (HISs) are intended to improve care quality, patient-centeredness, efficiency, and safety.
  • Despite their goals, HIS implementations frequently fail to meet expectations.
  • Existing qualitative studies offer valuable insights into HIS implementation challenges and successes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize knowledge from qualitative studies on HIS implementations.
  • To develop an updated framework for HIS implementation planning.
  • To identify critical factors for successful HIS adoption.

Main Methods:

  • A multi-disciplinary team conducted a comprehensive analysis of qualitative studies.
  • Systematic review and synthesis of findings from diverse HIS implementation contexts.
  • The analysis aimed for broad coverage of primary study aspects.

Main Results:

  • Simply installing an HIS does not guarantee increased organizational efficiency.
  • Key success factors include strategic, tactical, and operational actions.
  • Essential elements are management involvement, workflow integration, technical compatibility, and extensive user involvement, education, and training.

Conclusions:

  • Successful HIS implementation requires a holistic approach, not just technological deployment.
  • An updated, high-order scheme for planning HIS implementations is proposed.
  • This framework emphasizes the critical role of human and organizational factors alongside technical aspects.
