title: Information systems for private psychiatric hospitals: selection and management.
abstract: Private psychiatric hospitals are acquiring information systems to provide timely and accurate data for improved patient care and financial operations. Serious commitment of staff time, effort, and financial resources is required during the selection and management of the system to achieve full benefits from this technology. Active participation by senior management and the end-user community in the planning and acquisition process will lay the foundation for a successful system implementation.
