Abstract

This study aims to characterises the maturity of IT management in hospitals, to identify the IT management configurations needed to achieve greater performance and to characterise the organisational and strategic IT contexts in which these configurations evolve. Drawing on survey data from 72 Canadian acute-care hospitals with the CIO as the main respondent, we used a configurational approach to assess the maturity of their IT functions. We classified participating hospitals in two distinct groups, each related to different levels of performance. Hospitals in the first group are characterised by a rather "immature" IT management model and presented low levels of IT performance. Hospitals in the second group showed more maturity in their IT management model and high levels of IT performance. Importantly, both the strategic influence of the CIO and the centrality of IT to the hospital's strategic goals were found to be significantly greater in the mature group.

评估急诊医院IT功能的成熟度和绩效：一种配置观点

本研究旨在描述医院 IT 管理的成熟度，确定实现更高绩效所需的 IT 管理配置，并描述这些配置发展的组织和战略 IT 环境。我们利用来自 72 家加拿大急症护理医院的调查数据（首席信息官为主要受访者），采用配置方法来评估其 IT 功能的成熟度。我们将参与调查的医院分为两个不同的组别，每个组别都与不同的绩效水平相关。第一组医院的特点是信息技术管理模式相当 "不成熟"，信息技术绩效水平较低。第二组医院的信息技术管理模式更加成熟，信息技术绩效水平较高。重要的是，在成熟组中，首席信息官的战略影响力和信息技术在医院战略目标中的中心地位都明显高于成熟组。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
