During the past decade, the healthcare industry has seen a marked expansion of networked delivery. The norm is no longer a stand-alone hospital, but an "Integrated Healthcare Delivery System," in which a healthcare provider may offer services from acute care, ambulatory, longterm and home health care. Along with the IHDS comes the need to integrate the vast amount of information necessary to operate the network and service the patients. This article looks at the findings of a survey of IHDS information usage and needs.

Replacing an antiquated computer system with state of the art equipment and software is a lengthy, at times frustrating, and never an easy decision. At Wesley Woods Center on Aging, Atlanta, an integrated provider of healthcare for the elderly affiliated with Emory University, the process consumed more than two and a half years. This article takes the reader through the entire process, from the initial decision to replace an existing system, through the final purchase and installation. It looks candidly at the problems that were encountered, including turnover among key personnel, difficulties with involving all of the user groups, changes in the technology and coordination with the University. The lessons Wesley Woods learned in its experience can be of benefit to any healthcare facility contemplating an information system change.
用最先进的设备和软件替换过时的计算机系统是一个漫长的过程，有时令人沮丧，而且从来都不是一个容易的决定。亚特兰大韦斯利伍兹老龄中心(Wesley Woods Center on Aging)是一家隶属于埃默里大学(Emory University)的老年人综合医疗服务提供商，这个过程花费了两年半多的时间。本文将带读者经历从最初决定更换现有系统，到最后购买和安装的整个过程。它坦率地审查了所遇到的问题，包括关键人员的更替、所有用户群体参与的困难、技术的变化以及与联合国大学的协调。Wesley Woods从其经验中吸取的教训可以对任何考虑更改信息系统的医疗机构有益。

The advent of the wireless technology has brought new communications opportunities to healthcare facilities. A wireless phone system has allowed key employees to stay in touch at Inova Fairfax Hospital in Virginia, saving countless hours compared to traditional beeper systems, as well as saving money in reduced costs and improved efficiency.

This article focuses on the application of a new business computing model--Objects. Although Object Technology is not new, its widespread use in healthcare information management executives struggle with the integration demands of the new enterprise, Object Technology will unleash the true power of desktop computing and lessen the many quandaries faced with the integration and aggregation of strategic enterprise data. As we move forward, the new healthcare business model will attempt to create the "virtual enterprise." This new enterprise, will be lean and nimble and allow the Integrated Delivery System (IDS) to deliver care to a broader population with fewer requirements for expensive and scarce resources. To do this, the IDS must possess the technology to share key data, with partners and providers, that will allow faster and more accurate decision making. This article presents the "natural fit" of Object Technology and its ability to solve the complex computing issues of the new healthcare enterprise.
