RESUMO
Computers in Healthcare editors Carolyn Dunbar and Michael L. Laughlin spoke to nearly a hundred exhibitors during the 1992 Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society last February in Tampa, Fla. The themes of these conversations invariably turned to patient-focused systems, standards, integration and, of course, controlling healthcare costs. Many HIMSS participants offered valuable insights, and unfortunately space does not permit us to run every interview. In the following interviews, however, three industry leaders share visions of where their companies--and the industry--are headed.

Historically, the responsibility for selecting a healthcare information system was delegated to data processing or financial managers. In today's environment, however, the CEO's direct involvement in the selection process, rather than just review or approval, is imperative. How can you establish a partnership with your information system vendor? What are the steps for picking a Healthcare Information System (HIS) partner and laying the groundwork for successful system selection?
