Evidence-Based Investigation for Determining the Characteristics of Knowledge Management on Organizational Innovation within Taiwanese Teaching Hospitals

Abstract

Knowledge management models assist executives in generating and adopting sufficient information for managerial decision- making. These models may have utility in health care systems. This study examined knowledge management and innovation through the development of a culturally-appropriate instrument and collection of information from health care providers at several Taiwan teaching hospitals. Results indicated that several dimensions of the knowledge management model are associated with innovation and sharing of information in the study hospitals.
