Millions of dollars are spent each year to support research activities in academic health centers (AHCs). Managed care and the Balanced Budget Act have made it even more critical that these dollars be carefully managed. Information technology provides the essential tool for overseeing the grant administration and procurement process. To achieve greater fiscal responsibility and better management of research funds. AHCs must use this technology to develop comprehensive electronic research administration (ERA) systems. The author describes the essential steps involved in creating an ERA system. She also discusses systems already in place at AHCs and the various approaches their developers have taken to design and implement them.
每年都要花费数百万美元来支持学术健康中心（AHCs）的研究活动。管理式医疗和《平衡预算法案》使得谨慎管理这些资金变得更加关键。信息技术为监督拨款管理和采购流程提供了必要工具。为了实现更大的财政责任和更好地管理研究资金，学术健康中心必须利用这项技术来开发全面的电子研究管理（ERA）系统。作者描述了创建一个ERA系统所涉及的基本步骤。她还讨论了学术健康中心已经采用的系统以及其开发者在设计和实施这些系统时所采用的各种方法。
