Healthcare organizations can easily use Wizdom's Healthcare Process and Practice Models and supporting analysis tools to improve internal processes. Starting with the base models and using the modeling tools, they can define their own processes. Then, process properties such as how long does the process take? How much does it cost? What is its impact on outcome? And what documents support it? can be documented, analyzed and compared to the best practices as defined in the base models. All of these capabilities are built into the tools and supporting knowledge base.
This book demonstrates a more global, process-based approach to managing the electronic transactions that hold the healthcare industry together. Although successful materials management is vital to the economic viability of healthcare organizations, every aspect of healthcare in the hospital, longterm care facility, the home, or the clinic is part of the supply chain.
