Responsibility modelling: a new approach to the process of re-engineering the health-care organisation.
Technology changes our world. It is an accepted fact that the adoption and utilization of information technology by an organization will change the work patterns and power structures of that organization. Health-Care organizations realize that the process of re-alignment and re-engineering is a critical one, as it exposes consumers of health-care to the possible risk of death, or at least the loss of personal information. In this paper I will present the idea of modeling responsibilities as a vehicle for the re-engineering of the processes by which social values are mediated and health-care is delivered.
