Achieving successful health information system (HIS) implementation requires active user participation. This paper presents a general approach to organizing tailored participation processes for HIS development, with a case study from a Greek hospital.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Information Systems Development
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • User involvement is critical for the successful implementation of Health Information Systems (HIS).
  • Effective HIS development necessitates tailored participation strategies, not just appropriate methodologies.
  • Organizing user participation requires situational adaptation to ensure desired outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a general approach for facilitating user participation in Health Information Systems (HIS) development.
  • To describe the application of this approach within the specific context of a Greek hospital.
  • To provide insights into realizing truly participative HIS development.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a general framework for organizing user participation in HIS projects.
