Track Summary:
Information systems (IS) and technology (IT) innovations offer significant potential to improve quality and efficiency of care delivery, enable new forms of healthcare organizations, enhance interactions between patients and healthcare providers, and transform care delivery. However, to fully exploit the power of IS/IT within the healthcare sector requires overcoming significant challenges. Consistent with the 2013 conference theme, Hyperconnected World—Anything, Anywhere, Anytime, the focus of this track is on the design, implementation, adoption, and use of healthcare IS and IT, as well as quantifying their hyperconnected impacts on clinical and financial performance at the patient, physician, hospital/healthcare facility, and national levels. We welcome IS and IT studies from a variety of reference perspectives including computer science, economics, organizational behavior, public policy, software engineering, and strategy.
