14. IT in Care Process
Health plans that seek to better coordinate patient
care – particularly for chronic care patients – should
make sure all health care stakeholders have the same
Case Manager information when devising treatment strategies.
Placing high-quality, patient-centered data at the
center of the “circle of care” is where IT systems
(EHR) can be of strong value.

27. Current Status of Paperless Hospitals
There are perhaps few industries that have to
gain more from the internet revolution than
medicine…..(but doctors and) hospitals are
real laggards when it comes to the internet.
What e-health has to be used for is to
transform the whole process of delivering
care.
Russell Ricci, M.D, (Steinhauer, 2000)
TachRoyal Healthcare Consultancy Services

28. E – Organisation Culture
Ø The ultimate barrier and enabler of the digital
transformation are not technical – they are
cultural.
Ø A digital divide still exists between the e-users
and e-sceptics and healthcare is traditionally
slow to adopt new technology.

31. Healthcare Executives Straddle the
“Digital Divide”
 The healthcare system of tomorrow may
never be ‘paperless’ but progress is being
made despite the legendary reluctance of
physicians to accept changes in the way they
practice medicine.
 The transformation process of building
electronically integrated systems that
manage patients with “seamless” care has
already gained traction across the globe.
