2.0 out of 5 stars
Student oriented - very basic and theoretical,
By A Customer
This review is from: Healthcare Information Management Systems: A Practical Guide (Computers in Health Care) (Hardcover)
The book seems to be oriented towards students learning about information systems in the healthcare context and is quite elementary in the topics covered. I didn't learn very much and preferred "Information Technology for Integrated Health Systems" (an Errnst and Young book) edited by Kerry Kinsinger and Sandra Borchardt.

4.0 out of 5 stars
describes current and future systems,
By
This review is from: Healthcare Information Management Systems: Cases, Strategies, and Solutions (Health Informatics) (Hardcover)
The book is not primarily meant for an IT person. Rather, its chapters are pitched at various types of administrators and managers within a hospital (or related organisation) that need to understand what is available in terms of information management. So the chapters are written in the context of those backgrounds.
Having said this, an IT manager for a hospital, or for an IT firm that wants to develop systems for hospitals, can read this book profitably. It describes current systems and desirable properties of future systems in ways that customers can appreciate. For you, it is vital to understand these viewpoints if you intend to develop, maintain or sell management systems to them. |
