Contained costs and quality of treatment are two elements which have to be considered when planning and controlling both clinical and managerial activities of healthcare structures (HCSs). Each structure has to be marked by a high level of quality of treatment and by specific professional competencies and skills of its operators. It is therefore fundamental to provide a system which supports the management of processes and of guidelines which characterise an healthcare structure. In this paper we present a system able to describe processes of an HCS and in particular clinical guidelines. This system is based on a workflow conceptual model, able to represent clinical and managerial activities carried out in HCSs (the Atreus model).

Abstract
Contained costs and quality of treatment are two elements which have to be considered when planning and controlling both clinical and managerial activities of healthcare structures (HCSs). Each structure has to be marked by a high level of quality of treatment and by specific professional competencies and skills of its operators. It is therefore fundamental to provide a system which supports the management of processes and of guidelines which characterise an healthcare structure. In this paper we present a system able to describe processes of an HCS and in particular clinical guidelines. This system is based on a workflow conceptual model, able to represent clinical and managerial activities carried out in HCSs (the Atreus model).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
