ABSTRACT
This book explores issues and strategies impacting a market in transition. A market that is transitional at an accelerated pace will keep any chief information officer (CIO) up at night. Difficulties may arise for an organization in its ability to operationalize the management of government mandates within the needs of the facility. Other organizations would feel challenged by the proliferation of data and its mechanism of assimilation, access, use, and security management issues, for example, the ability to accurately match the list of data-related items to the individual patient.
