Abstract:
Hospital modernization is closely related to hospital information systems.The paper presents the notion of information flow and argues that the quality,speed,coverage,and efficiency of information flow in a hospital are the basic elements of its development.Hospital information systems provide systematic,primary and service support for various activities in the hospital and bring about changes in the essence of hospital culture.In their efforts to strengthen their information infrastructure,modernized hospitals should observe the principles of people first,cost-effectiveness balance and sustainable development and lay equal stress on cultivating specialized information personnel and improving the level of the entire staff in manipulating information and science and technology.
