Track: Enterprise System Minitrack: Healthcare Enterprise Systems: the adoption of Integrated Information Systems in healthcare industry

Integrated Enterprise systems is one of the vital items for digitalization that is in progress in all industries and healthcare industry is not an exception. Using suitable enterprise systems provides an opportunity to improve competitive advantages by increasing efficiency and effectiveness and quality improvement in healthcare industry.

Enterprise systems include different clinical and administrative workflows and applications that should be successfully integrated and implemented to support processes and facilitate operations, administration and decision making in hospitals. Applications such as CDSS or healthcare information systems (HIS) and etc. provide necessary data and information for decision making or operations. However, the lack of integration between different information systems cannot be ignored, there are information systems such as LIS (laboratory Information systems), EHR and etc. that can be a part of healthcare information systems but evidences shows in some cases these systems do not work properly or work separately in hospitals.

On the other hand, by emerging new advanced technologies in healthcare, such as expert systems, critical medical devices, intelligent information systems, digital communication tools and neural networks, it is necessary that healthcare enterprise systems consider them and use them integrated with operation modules to improve staff productivity, healthcare operations, process quality, patient safety, and the overall patient experience.

This mini track looking for research in following areas:

- Different modules and their applications in Healthcare enterprise systems - Implementation procedure and challenges of Healthcare enterprise systems in hospitals - Utilizing new technologies in Healthcare enterprise systems - Integration of different modules in Healthcare Enterprise Systems - Healthcare enterprise systems effects on efficiency and effectiveness of healthcare operations, reducing costs and increasing patients’ satisfaction.
