It has become essential and critical for
professionals in the healthcare and healthcare-related IT
industry to understand basic and recent advances in computer
and info-communications technology in health and medicine.
How are hospitals exploiting health informatics tools to
deliver cost-effective and efficient care? How are
clinicians deploying IT tools for better and safer patient
care? How are patients benefiting from better quality of
care through IT innovations? How do we comprehend
quality measures and standards from the use of these tools?
Most importantly, how do we measure
the impact of these initiatives have on patient health, outcomes
and cost?
The 5-day course, known officially as the
Executive Medical Informatics Course, is
a collaboration by the SGH
Post Graduate Medical Institute (PGMI), SGH Infotech and
Gateway Consulting Pte Ltd. The Course will enable
participants to get a better understanding of how health
informatics today can bring about higher value quality of
delivery in the healthcare marketplace.
