This volume focuses on management issues in the international
context of health information technology (HIT). Nations around the
globe have established policies designed to improve the
computerization of their health care systems. It is believed that
the adoption of HIT including clinical information systems,
decision support systems, and networks or systems that facilitate
the exchange of clinical and other health data will yield various
desirable outcomes. These outcomes may include improvements in the
quality of care, a reduction in medical errors, boosts in
efficiencies, and improved provider and patient satisfaction. The
purpose of this volume on HIT in the international context is to
facilitate the exchange of management theory, best practice,
implementation challenges, and the impact of adoption as it
pertains to HIT adoption in one or more international settings. It
offers a holistic viewpoint on health information technology use in
health care organizations and systems, providing a managerial
perspective from authors around the world that will prove useful
for health care practitioners across a variety of settings.
