Data management information system software designed to manage/operate computerized information systems intended for hospital centralized data management. This software is intended to work with one or a few models of hospital data management information systems, usually supplied by the same manufacturer. The software performs a variety of algorithms to process the data obtained throughout the facility. Hospital data management information system software is available as part of the complete information system or as a separate component; the software may be modified (i.e., through the release of modified versions) during the life of the system by releasing updated versions. Dedicated hospital data management software intended only for particular applications, such as centralized scheduling, admission/discharge/transfer, integrated (high-level patient management), and master patient index is also available.
