2. what is HIS?

3. what is HIS?
HIS. Hospital Information System. One that supports all hospital functions and activities such as patient records, scheduling, administration, charge-back and billing, and often links to or includes clinical information systems such as RIS. (Radiology Information System )
that part of a HIS in which computer systems are used as ICT-tools(information and communication technology ) is referred to as its
r computer-supported part
the remainder is being referred to as the
r non-computer-supported part
as a consequence, a hospital has a HIS from ...
r the beginning of its existence on

4. what is HIS? the question is not
r whether a hospital should be equipped with a hospital information system or not,
but an appropriate question would be ...
r whether the performance should be enhanced, for example, by using state of the art ICT-tools
HIS must consider all areas of a hospital:
r wards
r outpatient units
r service units (diagnostic, therapy,others)
r administrative departments
r management/executive units

5. what is HIS? HIS must consider all groups of persons r physicians
r nurses
r administrative staff
r technical staff
r health informaticians / health information managers
r ...
... and last, but not least,
r patients
r visitors
r suppliers

10. The information of the hospital come from
Front office
Doctors consultation room
Ward
Laboratory
The service providers like financial and insurance service provider
And so on

11. This information can be categorized as

16. Conclusions
The system allows for interaction between the various component in an integrated and modular format
While creating a composite Master Patient Index comprising of all kinds of financial,administrative and clinical information, the system also serves to pass on the message
A technology that allows computers and networks to add and extract value from information as the information moves throughout an organization
The information can be assigned, routed, activated and managed through system-controlled rules that mirror the decision processes of the business operations in the hospital

17. The function of HIS

18. HIS have the ability to link the following major players
Laboratories
Pharmacies
Researchers
Doctors and consultants
Banks and financial institutions
Administrators
And knowledge managers

20. the aim of a HIS is
r to adequately enable the execution of information processing functions
– for patient care, including
administration as well as
– for research and education mainly
for university hospitals -
r considering economic hospital management, as well as
r legal and other requirements
therefore HIS contributes to a high quality of patient care and medical research

21. HIS should provide
r information, primarily about patients, in a way that it is correct, pertinent and up to date, in time, accessible by the right persons at the right site in a usable format
r knowledge, primarily about diseases, but also, for example, about the effects of drug interaction, to support diagnosis and therapy
r information about the quality of patient care, hospital performance and costs

22. in other words:
HIS should provide, as far as feasible,
r the right information and
r the right knowledge
r at the right time
r in the right place
r to the right people
r in the right form
so that these people can make
r the right decisions

23. university hospitals / university medical centers, in addition to patient care
r undertake research and teaching to gain medical knowledge and deeper understanding
r new knowledge is gained from specific experiences in patient care through careful data collection
r to support this, also specialized biometric methods, such as planning clinical trials,are needed

24. ten application areas will be the necessary part of the HIS
Admissions, Medical Records & Abstracting (ADM/MRI/ABS)
Billing/Account Receivable (BAR)
Community Wide Scheduling (CWS)
Data Repository (DR)
Imaging and Therapeutic Services (ITS)
Laboratory, Microbiology, Blood Bank & Anatomical Pathology (LIS)
Order Entry & Electronic Medical Record (OE/EMR)
Patient Care System (PCS)
Pharmacy (PHA)
Remote Physician Access

25. importance of HIS

26. the information system of a hospital is an important quality factor
the information system of a hospital is an important cost factor
the quality of HIS is becoming increasingly relevant in the competition between hospitals
a HIS can provide a holistic view of patients and of a hospital
a HIS can be seen as the memory and nervous system of a hospital

27. Thank you very much. Any questions?
