title: Hospitals with the best information systems. 1991 SDR awards of excellence.
abstract: For the second year, 12 hospitals with truly exceptional information systems are highlighted in Hospitals. The Shared Data Research Second Annual Award of Excellence is presented to those institutions showing leadership in information systems management. Recognition is based on cost and performance factors. As investment in these systems grows, so does executives' interest in measuring their cost and performance. Indeed, U.S. hospitals spent more than $6.5 billion on materials services in this area in 1989. "Hospitals with the Best Information Systems" leads off our 14-page Factbook--a guide to the 1991 HIMSS Annual Conference, to be held Feb. 11-14 in San Francisco.
