Abstract:
Healthcare organizations are facing the challenge of delivering high-quality affordable services to their patients at affordable costs. To help support this challenge, medical Informatics research offers formalisms for developing clinical guideline-based decision-support systems. On the other hand, business process management offers IT support for healthcare processes using workflow technology. By integrating aspects from these approaches, there is hope for achieving better healthcare process support. The potential and the limitations of IT support for healthcare processes are the focus of the fourth ProHealth workshop. ProHealth provides a forum wherein challenges, paradigms, and tools for optimized process support in healthcare are debated.
