Health information systems implementation: Review of change management issues

Abstract

It is common for information system projects' implementation to fail. One of the most mentioned reasons is implementation management, particularly the change management during the implementation cycle. This study provides a literature review that aims at supporting this assertion, and identifies some of the most evident issues on the subject. The study highlights the need for new approaches on the Change Management process in the implementation of health information systems. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2010.
