ObjectivesTo进行深入的案例分析,堪萨斯远程医疗计划的大学,以确定组织和通信元素,可能会阻碍该计划的effectiveness.MethodsA案例分析做了,采用的方法相结合(直接观察,访谈和调查),涉及广泛的数据收集远程医疗计划人员在整个堪萨斯州。这个程序的组织沟通的分析集中在结构和边界,定义和目标,领导和决策,成员和roles.ResultsSignificant组织沟通赤字被确定。这些问题包括:缺乏可感知的中央领导,缺乏关于技术本身的信息,安排和利用远程医疗技术的手段设计不良且繁琐,缺乏明确的战略目标;以及在向医务人员和公众介绍这一技术方面沟通不畅。其他重要的调查结果是:组织成员扩大了这个组织的范围超出了提供一个简单的咨询;的看法,决策福尔斯几乎每个人的手中,但指医生;和语言(或缺乏共同的术语)的作用,在混乱中发挥这种innovation.ConclusionOrganizational因素可能是成功或失败的远程医疗计划的关键决定因素。远程医疗技术的创新需要与组织通信和结构的创新相匹配。这项研究的结果可以应用于现有的或计划中的项目。例如,重新界定某些人员的作用和责任,提高效率,降低会诊时间安排过程的复杂性,明确领导和决策并使之正规化,以及制定远程医疗通用术语。
ObjectivesTo conduct an in-depth case analysis of the University of Kansas Telemedicine Program in order to identify organizational and communications elements that may be hindering the program's effectiveness.MethodsA case analysis was done, employing a combination of methodologies (direct observation, interview, and survey) involving extensive data collection from telemedicine program personnel throughout the state of Kansas. Analysis of this program's organizational communication focused on structure and boundaries, definitions and goals, leadership and decision making, and membership and roles.ResultsSignificant organizational communication deficits were identified. These included a dearth of perceived central leadership, lack of information about the technology itself, poorly designed and cumbersome means for scheduling and utilizing telemedicine technology, absence of explicit strategic goals; and poor communication in introducing this technology to medical personnel and to the public. Other important findings were: organizational members expanded the scope of this organization beyond the providing of a simple consultation; the perception that decision making falls into the hands of almost everyone but the referring physician; and the role that language (or lack of common terminology) plays in confusion about this innovation.ConclusionOrganizational factors may be critical determinants of success or failure of a telemedicine program. Innovations in telemedicine technology need to be matched by innovations in organizational communication and structure. Findings from this study can be applied to existing or planned programs. Examples include redefinition of the roles and responsibilities of certain personnel, increasing the efficiency and decreasing the complexity of the consultation scheduling process, clarification and formalization of leadership and decision making, and development of a universal terminology of telemedicine.
