| Popis: | This paper is a review of Oman's major Health Information Systems (HISs) and their enabling technologies. The work assesses the scope, functionality, security, and interoperability of the used systems. The review aids in achieving the objectives of HIS systems of improving the global quality of health care, attaining increased coordination between health care providers and consumers, promoting the use of guidelines and policies, and improving the speed of simultaneous access and distribution of medicalrecords and other resources. This paper, which can be considered as a building block towards the development of a nation-wide health care system, studies existing systems and identifies their functions and structures. |
