Abstract
Information systems are currently applied on a large scale in every sphere of human activity, also in medicine, i.e. in hospital functioning. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the issues related to the use of these systems in the Polish healthcare institutions on the basis of data from the report on healthcare informatization in Poland. As a result we showed that some information systems, mainly HIS, RIS, LIS, PIS and PACS, are used in many Polish hospitals, however the range of their applications is still insufficient. There is an urgent need to implement them in all hospitals in Poland. Each hospital should apply such systems because they bring a number of benefits, such as the increase of management efficiency, reduction of time required for healthcare services and reduction of health care costs.
