notify other departments needingthe information automatically.

Information resource is accurateand up-to-date. One common

database makes a powerfulinformation resource available to

the entire Company.

Quick flow of information fromdata entry to data used



Freeing of highly trained Pharmaprofessionals from manualrepetitive tasks such as paperwork.

Improvement in variousoperations of Pharma Industry

Improvement in decision makingby Pharma administrators sinceup-to-date information becomesavailable.

Adequate data protection, sincechecks and codes are used toreveal the information only tothose who are authorized to have

Information. Generation of more efficient and

Significance

Quality factor:

up-to-date and valid

causes repetitiveExaminations

Cost of medical Care/

Pharma will decrease



Significance

Cost factor

In an automated hospitalinformation system used abroad ,an estimated 3-5% of the costs of

an enterprise are due toelectronic data processing.

This includes computer system,computer networks and computer

based application systems Some studies are observed that

25 % of the hospital /enterprisecost are due to information

processing



Significance

Competitiveness amongstPharma Industry

productivity factor inmedicine and health care

increasingly important for the

competitiveness of hospitals



Significance

Holistic View of thepatient

Guarantee availability ofrequisite information

about a patient as andwhen required

diagnostic and

therapeutic measures



Significance

Memory and the nervoussystem

In terms of statistical

presentation

Multi Dimensional Data

Information system can be seen

as the memory and the nervous

system of the hospital.
