History of Ramathibodi’s
IT Development
• CIO: Dr. Suchart Soranasataporn• Developed HIS from scratch• Started from MPI, OPD, IPD,
Pharmacy, Billing, etc.• Platform: Visual FoxPro (UI, Logic,
Database)
1st Generation (~1987-2001)
Visual FoxPro
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_FoxPro
• File-based DB, not real DBMS– Performance Issues
• Not well designed indexing, concurrency controls & access controls
• Indexes sensitive to network disruptions• Single point of failures (no redundancy)
– Scalability Issues• Database file size < 2GB
• Not service-oriented architecture
Some Limitations of Visual FoxPro
• Trials & errors• Individuals or small teams
– Teams based on system modules (OPD, IPD, Billing, etc.)
• Non-systematic, no documents
1st-Generation Development Process
• CIO: Dr. Piyamitr Sritara• Developed CPOE for inpatients
medication orders• Lab orders and lab results viewing• Discharge summaries, etc.• Enhanced existing HIS modules and add more
modules and departmental systems (e.g. LR, OR)• Platform: Visual FoxPro (UI, Logic, Database)
2nd Generation (2001-2005)
• Java or .NET?
• Open/cost-effective vs. timely development
• Technology survival?
• Decision: Defer & continue using Visual FoxPro
2nd Generation (2001-2005)
http://thinkunlimited.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Fork_in_the_road_sign.jpg
• Small teams– Teams based on system modules (OPD, IPD,
Billing, Pharmacy, Lab, etc.)• Realized needs for systematic software
development process• Started formal systems analysis & design
with some documents
2nd-Generation Development Process
• CIO: Dr. Artit Ungkanont• Continued ongoing projects from
2nd Generation & implemented– ERP, PACS
• Implemented commercial LIS• Implemented self-developed web-
based “Doctor’s Portal”
3rd Generation (2005-2011)
• Architectural changes: Used middleware (web services, JBOSS, JCAPS)
• Implemented data exchange of lab & ADT data using HL7 v.2 & v.3 messaging
• Enhanced existing HIS & add more functions• SDMC becomes operational (2011)• Platform:
– Web [Mainly Java] (UI)– Web services (Logic)– Oracle & Microsoft SQL Server (Database)
• Legacy platform: Visual FoxPro (UI, Logic, Database)
3rd Generation (2005-2011)
• Small teams– Teams based on system modules (OPD, IPD,
Billing, Pharmacy, Lab, etc.)• Attempted systematic software
development process, with limited success• Balancing quality development with timely
software delivery difficult
3rd-Generation Development Process
• CIO: Dr. Chusak Okaschareon• Implemented CPOE for
outpatients (with gradual roll-out)• Scanned Medical Records for
outpatients• RamaEMR (portal & EMR
viewer for physicians and nurses in OPD)
4th Generation (2011-Present)
• Ongoing projects– CMMI & high-quality software testing– High-Performance Data Center & IT Services (ISO)– System Reliability & Security: Disaster Recovery &
Business Continuity Management– Business intelligence
• Platform:– Web [Mainly Java] (UI)– Web services (Logic)– Oracle & Microsoft SQL Server (Database)
• Legacy platform: Visual FoxPro (UI, Logic, DB)
4th Generation (2011-Present)
CMMI

• Project-based development• Roles of “Business Analysts”• From “silo” teams to “pooled” resources
– Business Analysis Team– Systems Analysis Team– Development Team– Testing Teams

Lesson #2Customization vs.
Standardization: Always a Balancing Act
Customization: A Tailor-Made Shirt

Customization & Standardization
Customization Standardization
Lesson #3Build or Buy?: A
Context-Dependent, but Serious Decision
Build or Buy
Build/Homegrown• Full control of software &
data• Requires local expertise• Expertise
retention/knowledge management is vital
• Maybe cost-effective if high degree of local customizations or long-term projection
Buy/Outsource• Less control of software &
data• Requires vendor
competence• Vendor relationship
management is vital• Maybe cost-effective
if economies of scale or few customizations
Does service offer competitive advantage?
Is external deliveryreliable and lower cost?

IT Outsourcing Decision Tree: Ramathibodi’s Case
Core HIS, CPOEStrategic advantages• Agility due to local workflow accommodations• Secondary data utilization (research, QI)• Roadmap to national leader in informatics (internal “lab”)
External delivery unreliable• Non-Core HIS,External delivery higher cost• ERP maintenance/ongoing customization

Lesson #4Be careful of “Legacy
Systems Trap” or “Vendor Lock-in”
Lesson #5Invest in People
• About 100 IT professionals (1:80)– Health informaticians– Business analysts– Systems analysts– Software developers– Software testers– Project managers– Systems & network administrators– Engineers & technicians– Data analysts– Help desk / user support agents– Supporting staff
• Ratios of IT vs Health from Western countries: 1:50 - 1:60
Ramathibodi IT Workforce
• First (and still the only) medical school in Thailand with M.D., Ph.D. formally trained in Health Informatics
• Return on investment (ROI) still to be proven :)

Lesson #7Data are golden
Data & Business Intelligence
Image Source: http://www.zawya.com/story/ZAWYA20121016035553/
• Important for academic health centers & university hospitals
• Important for cost savings & quality improvement
• Privacy safeguards important
Secondary Use of Data & Business Intelligence (BI)
Lesson #8.1Even large hospitals still
face enormous IT challenges.
Lesson #8.2Real-world hospital IT
management is messy, difficult, tiring &
discouraging. Live with it...
Lesson #9Value of Teamwork & Project Management
in IT Projects
• Restructuring IT teams very helpful in effective & efficient software development
• Quality of software reflects quality of the team and process
Teams & Outcomes
Lesson #10We can’t live without IT in
today’s health care. What an exciting time to
be in the field!
Ramathibodi hospital’s IT builds upon its long history of development and has offered values to the organization, but it still has a long way to go, and there is no “perfect” implementation. Large rooms for improvement.
