Abstract

newline With very little information about knowledge management practices in India, efforts newlinehave been made to investigate the knowledge management with a focus on information newlinetechnology level, role, knowledge management process and its relationship with healthcare newlinedoctors, and technology professionals newlineKnowledge flow needs to be studied from an information technology perspective. newlineKnowledge management process leads to effectiveness. Studies explored information newlinetechnology infrastructure and role of information technology for healthcare administration, newlinelab/diagnostics workings, for providing patient services and exploring role for doctors in newlinehealthcare sector. Further knowledge management process and relative role of information newlinetechnology explored for effectiveness. newlineThe purpose of the study is to explore that knowledge management may be an newlineeffective strategic initiative that enables long-term success, enhances value and helps to newlineincrease competitive advantage. newlineThe study strives to examine the extent of information technology strategy in newlinehealthcare organizations. This is an endeavor to evaluate the context of knowledge newlinemanagement in terms of its major constituents of knowledge management process and newlinesuggest a information strategic model which of course would be benchmark for hospital newlineexecutive in efficient healthcare administration. newlineA sample has been taken for Delhi-NCR Region regions of India. The responses of newlineinformation technology professionals and doctors have been taken and the same became the newlinebasics of future analysis and interpretation. newlineThis is the first research study that integrated the information technology strategy newlinelevel, role, and knowledge management process comprehensively. Also examined the newlinerelationships between the information technology strategy and effectiveness. This study newlineextends the research and practices of information technology for knowledge management and newlinesuggests that which information technology role influence effectiveness. newline
