The Projected Requirement For The Number Of Hospital Beds Calls For A Large Number Of Hospitals To Come Up In The Near Future. Advances In The Field Of Medical And Information Technology Along With Increased Expectations From The Public For Better Health Care Services Call For Better Management Of Our Hospitals. Hospitals Have Become Complex Organizations As They Consume Vast Amount Of Resources In Delivering A Wide Range Of Health Care Services.
