HiT 2009 (Health Information Technologies 2009)
Congress for Health Professionals: The European Health Information System Congress is designed to bring together all actors involved in the process: * Decision-makers and management teams, network leaders, public authorities, for whom information is a strategic resource and the information system an investment intended to create added value and develop performance. * Users (doctors, pharmacists, nurses and managers), and engineers (biomedical, hospital organisation, information system security…) for whom information systems represent a major issue in terms of security and quality of care for patients, at ward level, in networks or in outside hospitals.
