In a time of decreasing resources, managers need a tool to manage their resources effectively, support clinical requirements, and replace aging equipment in order to ensure adequate clinical care. To do this successfully, one must be able to perform technology assessment and capital equipment asset management. The lack of a commercial system that adequately performed technology needs assessment and addressed the unique needs of the military led to the development of an in-house Technology Assessment and Requirements Analysis (TARA) program. The TARA is a tool that provides an unbiased review of clinical operations and the resulting capital equipment requirements for military hospitals. The TARA report allows for the development of acquisition strategies for new equipment, enhances personnel management, and improves and streamlines clinical operations and processes.
在资源日益减少的时代,管理者需要一种工具来有效管理资源、满足临床需求并更换老化设备,以确保提供足够的临床护理。要成功做到这一点,必须能够进行技术评估和资本设备资产管理。由于缺乏一个能充分进行技术需求评估并满足军队独特需求的商业系统,因此开发了一个内部技术评估与需求分析(TARA)计划。TARA是一种工具,可对临床操作以及由此产生的军队医院资本设备需求进行公正审查。TARA报告有助于制定新设备的采购策略,加强人员管理,并改进和简化临床操作及流程。
