Developing cost-efficient information systems for small hospitals.
It has been said that the small hospital cannot afford or easily maintain the information systems needed for efficient management. However, Northern Dutchess Hospital, a small institution located in Rhinebeck N.Y., has developed a cost-efficient and effective case-based information system that adequately handles their management needs. By using existing hardware and integrating software that could be easily inter-connected, the hospital created a basic system design without the need for huge financial and personnel investments.
