The current status in the development and implementation of Hospital Information Systems (HIS) is described in this book. It provides insight into the most important issues relating to the design and development of HIS (e.g. software engineering aspects, medical data dictionaries, communication and networking, and decision support functions), presenting examples of the application of decision support functions and illustrating their potential impact on the quality of care and health care costs. The book also provides an exemplary description of existing successfully applied medical information systems, and illustrates the options provided with newer computing technologies in order to migrate to modern open HIS environments.
