Popis: | Healthcare organizations have cycled through a number of different approaches to architectures, designs and integration strategies. The tendency is to focus on new products, but little focus is spent on event-driven architectures which coincidentally has the most impact on patient safety. This lack of focus results in diseconomy of complexity because systems and functions begin to overlap and no IT governance is established, leading to operational inefficiencies, loss in staff productivity and delayed decision-making. If healthcare organizations do not begin to build an overlying IT blueprint, systems deployment will begin to spiral beyond control and will not be recoverable without a master technology plan. |
