About the Course and
Workshop
The rising costs of health care and the need
to improve quality care have driven the widespread adoption
of health information technology by governments and health
care providers in the private and public sectors. The
operational transformation process has also generated a
demand for a new generation of IT workforce that will be
required to have sufficient domain knowledge to understand
how IT can be applied to all areas of healthcare operations
in an enterprise-wide setting. In order for IT
professionals to stay competitive and relevant in a new
healthcare work environment, IT skills alone are not enough.
The IT professional working in a healthcare setting today
would be required to understand basic and recent advances in
computer and info-communications technology in health and
medicine. How are hospitals exploiting health
information systems and tools to deliver cost-effective and
efficient care? How can HIT help care providers to
deliver 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?
