Abstract

Technology in health care: are we delivering on the promise? Australian Health Review invites contributions for an upcoming issue on information management and information and communication technology in health care. Submission deadline: 15 May 2007 Despite a reputation for less spending on information and communication technologies (ICT), the health care sector has an imperative to ensure the ?right? information has been made available and accessible to the ?right? person at the ?right? time. While there is increasing evidence that the strategic application of ICT in innovative ways can improve the effectiveness of health care delivery, we don?t often discuss the substantial changes to the way health care organisations operate that are required for best practice information management. In an upcoming issue, Australian Health Review is looking to publish feature articles, research papers, case studies and commentaries related to information management and information and communication technologies in health care. We are particularly interested in papers that report on the successes, or failures, of initiatives in Australia and New Zealand that have brought together the research, the technology and the clinical, managerial and organisational expertise. Submissions related to international initiatives with lessons for Australia and New Zealand will also be welcomed. Submissions can be short commentaries of 1000 to 2000 words, or more comprehensive reviews of 2000 to 4000 words. Please consult the AHR Guidelines for Authors for information on formatting and submission. The deadline for submission is 15 May 2007.
