This research paper was conducted within the academic framework of the University of Piraeus, and its Master's degree programme under the auspices of the social science faculty and the department of healthcare management.
The qualitative of this research is to outline and analyse the conceptual framework, with regard to the implementation of the patient's electronic database in the healthcare system.
The methodological approach consists of two targets that were set to be analysed and executed. To begin with, the reason for which the electronic database was implemented in the first place in the Greek health care system and finally, its performance assessment. It is segmented into five chapters along with a final conclusion. The first chapter outlines the patient's electronic database, its advantages and disadvantages, along with a brief history of its development. The second chapter analyses the medical database and most importantly, its usefulness and its impact on the overall healthcare system. Accordingly, data from the research is collected and analysed.
The third chapter demonstrates the actual implementation of the database in an actual hospital while the fourth chapter outlines the research method. It includes the data collected from the researched hospital at which the database was implemented and run, along with the analyses of the final results and its critical review.
The fifth and final chapter summarises the goals of the research and its conclusive results.
