This important new volume presents recent research in healthcare information technology and analytics.  Individual chapters look at such issues as the impact of technology failure on electronic prescribing behavior in primary care; attitudes toward electronic health records; a latent growth modeling approach to understanding lifestyle decisions based on patient historical data; designing an integrated surgical care delivery system using axiomatic design and petri net modeling; and failure in a dynamic decision environment, particularly in treating patients with a chronic disease.

Other chapters look at such topics as the impact of information technology integration in integrated delivery systems; operations and supply chain control for inventory management in a health system pharmacy; decision-theoretic assistants based on contextual gesture recognition; evaluating emergency response medical information systems; clinical decision support in critical care; virtual worlds in healthcare; and natural language processing for understanding contraceptive use at the VA.

Ashish Gupta, PhD is founding director of Big Data & Analytics Research Center and an Associate Professor of Analytics & IS in the College of Business at the University of Tennessee Chattanooga. This center has been seed funded and has a strong focus on solving high impact Healthcare, smart grid and other analytics oriented problems. Prior to this, he was an Associate Professor (tenured) in the School of Business at Minnesota State University Moorhead. He earned his PhD in Management Science and Information Systems from Spears School of Business at Oklahoma State University. He has been a Visiting Research Scientist at Mayo Clinic Rochester and Visiting Associate Professor in Biomedical Informatics department at Arizona State University. He serves as one of the external collaborators with Critical Care Informatics lab at Mayo Clinic Rochester. 

Dr. Gupta’s research interests are in the areas of data analytics, smart grid, critical care, EMR, patient portals, telemedicine, workflow and process modeling, simulation, healthcare delivery and outcomes, system design, cognitive decision making in healthcare, epidemiology, information overload, and multitasking. His recent articles have appeared in journals such as MIT Sloan Management Review,Journal of Biomedical Informatics, IEEE Transactions, Information Systems Journal, European Journal of Information Systems, Decision Support Systems, Information Systems Frontiers

, and Communications of the Association for Information Systems. Professor Gupta’s research has been supported by many agencies and has received numerous awards. He is recently a recipient of the national faculty scholarship from Teradata. He serves on several review panels and has co-chaired several national and international conferences such as Business Analytics Congress 2015, Big data & Analytics for Business (BDAB 2014, 2016, New Delhi, India), Midwest Association for Information Syste
