Abstract

Maturity Models have been introduced, over the last four decades, as guides and references for Information System (IS) management in organizations from different sectors of activity. In the healthcare field, Maturity Models have also been used to deal with the enormous complexity and demand of Hospital Information Systems (HIS). The present paper introduces a maturity model baptized as HISMM, which includes six stages of HIS growth and maturity progression. The HISMM has the peculiarity of congregating a set of key maturity Influence Factors and respective characteristics, enabling not only the assessment of the global maturity of a HIS but also the individual maturity of its different dimensions.
