Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Management information systems (MIS) and decision support systems (DSS), used as part of broader healthcare technology management, are considered to be health technologies. As such, they should meet the criteria of affordability, appropriateness, cost-effectiveness, ease of use and sustainability if they are to be implementable and have a lasting impact on healthcare service delivery. They should also facilitate and support improved quality of healthcare. We have developed a suite of management-support tools around a concept of integrated healthcare resource planning and management (iHRPM). We believe that these tools meet the above-mentioned criteria and therefore lend themselves to widespread applicability in diverse healthcare and socio-economic contexts, not least in supporting performance monitoring and benchmarking. |
