Synopsis

This book has been written especially for health care workers and managers, including clinicians, who are required to have a working knowledge of health information systems, for practical or managerial purposes, but who have no previous experience in the area. It offers an overview of the main concepts of health informatics in the UK, and a critical explanation of the current state of development of health information issues. It looks particularly at the managerial and organizational implications of health information systems, focusing on the ways in which they can be used to benefit health care in the reformed NHS. While the case material and literature cited in the book are drawn from the British National Health Service in the main, the principles and practical lessons have a much wider application to social services and public welfare organizations around the world.
