随着社会主义市场经济体系的建立和发展,卫生工作面临的内、外环境发生了根本变化,一些制约卫生事业发展的深层次矛盾和问题日益显现,卫生改革与发展迫切需要加快信息化建设。有关数据显示,西方发达国家的信息化投入占整个医疗卫生总费用的2%～6%,而我国还远远没达到这个比例。 With the establishment and development of the socialist market economic system, the internal and external environment facing the health work has undergone fundamental changes. Some deep-rooted contradictions and problems restricting the development of the health undertaking have become increasingly apparent. The health reform and development urgently require the acceleration of informationization. Relevant data show that the information technology investment in the western developed countries accounts for 2% -6% of the total medical and health care costs, while our country is far from this proportion.
