Written in particular for practitioners and students of health services planning and management, this text focuses on a critical area for management - enhancing the decision making process. It introduces computer-based decision support systems, showing how such systems can enhance decision making in the health service by promoting careful analysis, considered judgement and the ability to explain the basis on which decisions are made. Case studies of the development and use of these systems are provided.
