Description

This paper is designed to systematically assess the benefits of a chemotherapy ordering system (COS) for the private healthcare sector, in Australia. By taking a rational economic perspective and modeling the principle-agent relationships using an actor network framework, it is possible to evaluate various scenarios and thereby assess the benefits, barriers and facilitators possible COS can have. In this study, four propositions are tested using a mixed methodology which will serve to facilitate the decision making processes regarding the choice and implementation of the appropriate COS.
