Abstract

Healthcare systems are dependent on high-quality information collection, integration, and accessibility of data for clinical and administrative decision making. Information systems must provide data able to be used to evaluate and predict utilization of human and material resources, determine effectiveness of care through patient outcomes, develop budget projections, support the analysis of comparative health services, and project trends on which plans of action can be formulated.

Nurse administrators have a key role to play in the development of systems by which data will be converted into useful information.
