| Popis: | The proposal for self-governing hospital trusts within the NHS, announced in the White Paper Working for Patients on 31 January 1989 and enacted through passage of the National Health Service and Community Care Act 1990 last July, introduces free market incentives to NHS hospitals. Hospitals applying for self-governing status must first demonstrate that they have an information system appropriate to support decision making in the new context. An overall information systems flow and an approach to information systems development are recommended based upon the Freeman Hospital model. The Freeman Hospital is a national pilot site selected by the NHS Management Executive for development of information systems for NHS hospitals. |
