The empirical object of medical informatics.

Abstract:

:Medical informatics is the science of information processing and the creation of information processing systems in medicine and health care delivery. Its methodological approach is based on the area specific applicability of a multidisciplinary theory of engineering and managing computerized information systems related to its empirical object. This paper gives a systemic view of the health care system, representing the empirical object of medical informatics.
