摘要：With the vision of a seamless, state-wide approach to patient management, the Department of Health within the Queensland State Government of Australia embarked on a digital transformation journey. This involved the configuration and rollout of an integrated electronic medical record system (ieMR) with computerized provider order entry, ePrescribing, decision support, analytics, and research functionalities, together with new devices and work practices, to create a multi-hospital, whole-of-state digital health ecosystem. Drawing on multiple perspectives, including executives and front-line clinicians who are both optimistic and pessimistic towards the ieMR, this teaching case describes the digital transformation of the lead site, Princess Alexandra Hospital, and their experience in becoming Australia’s first large digital hospital. This case has been informed by a multi-year qualitative study involving the collection of primary (observations and interviews) and secondary data (publicly available project records) before and after the implementation. This case is relevant to undergraduate and postgraduate students in information systems, executive management, and clinical/health informatics.
