| Summary: | Technology is the primary driving force for change in today's healthcare environment. Understanding the dynamics of medical technology and applying probative management measures can be accomplished with a medical technology assessment program. In an era of managed care, the very survival of healthcare facilities is linked to the efficient use and application of medical technology. This project will provide a model for implementing a medical technology assessment system. A database of information will form the backbone of this system. Various queries can be run to produce the desired results. This system will provide a means for assessing the currently available medical technology. Based on the information present in the system clinical engineers would be able to compare and contrast existing medical technology. A central web site will be designed which clinical engineers/biomedical technicians can access. This web site will be used to interact with the database. When queried it will return HTML documents, which show the results in the form of a report. |
