Is it possible to see a return on the huge investments it takes for hospitals to purchase and implement sophisticated clinical information systems (CIS)? The question is an important one.

IT is coming into its own at a time when the healthcare system is in financial trouble - struggling to avoid seeing their bottom line dive irretrievably deep into the red. This study delves into the factors that impact CIS return on investment. (Please note: this publication is only available for purchase.)
