Item description from seller

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book provides an extensive review of what innovation means in healthcare, with real-life examples and guidance on how to successfully innovate with IT in healthcare. Huge amounts of money are spent on electronic health record (EHR) and other healthcare information technology (HIT) systems each year, and the challenge is to ensure these systems are effective on every level. Simply recreating paper-based processes on these systems does not significantly improve quality, efficiency or the financial aspects of setting up these services. While there are excellent resources available on healthcare IT and others that detail innovation strategies in healthcare, there is little material providing real life examples and explanations of how to combine these two powerful tools.Innovation with Information Technologies in Healthcare thus serves to fill this gap by using real life cases to detail how information technology systems have been used in an innovative fashion to solve the types of problems faced every day in healthcare. The Editors and their carefully selected group of contributors, ranging from multi-hospital organizations to small clinics, have assembled a book that describes successful cases covering EHR, Telemedicine and other health IT experiences, in which brilliant and innovative uses of healthcare IT have improved quality, efficiency and value. Each case chapter includes a story about the impact of these HIT innovations on patients, an explanation on the origin of the innovation, details on how the innovation evolved from idea to reality, the real world results of the innovation and lessons learned along the way. Additionally, each of these chapters conclude with thoughts on future HIT innovations from each contributor. This book is increasingly relevant for three reasons. First, HIT is an increasingly important part of everyday life in healthcare, but there is a large gap between reality and optimal use. Second, clinical innovation is becoming an increasingly well established science within healthcare, but the innovation experts rarely are HIT experts as well. And finally, healthcare in the US is in the midst of major changes, including mandatory insurance coverage (e.g. creating demand that outstrips than supply) and likely reimbursement changes (e.g. Medical homes, Accountable care organizations, Managed Care 2.0). The result is that executives, consultants and vendors will all be looking for a truly helpful resource to help guide them. While there are some books which talk about successfully implementing IT and others which talk about the strategy of innovation, there are no books which provide real life examples and explanations of how to truly utilize HIT in an innovative manner.…
