title: Multihospital integration issues: it doesn't get much harder than this.
abstract: Multihealthcare organizations face unique challenges when it comes to providing information services for all of their entities. They must consider corporate philosophy, geography, computing configurations and whether their I/S approach capitalizes on centralized economies of scale or regional flexibility and control. Multisystem experts George Kennedy and Stan Jaworksi of The Kennedy Group, Redwood City, Calif., describe system integration trends in multihealthcare organizations and provide an overview of the implications for information systems executives.
