최근 들어 병원들은 심화되는 경쟁 환경에 처하고 있다. 이런 상황에서는 병원의 업무를 환자의 시각에서 조명하고 이를 반영하는 정보시스템을 갖추는 것이 경쟁력 강화에 있어서 필수사항이라 할 것이다. 일부 병원에서는 업무프로세스를 통합하지 않고, 부분적인 정보만을 제공하고 있으며, 정보의 혼재 및 중복으로 환자 및 의료인에게 적절한 정보를 제공하지 못하고 있는 상태이다. 병원의 목적은 환자진료인 만큼 환자정보를 중심으로 병원정보를 재구성하고 그러한 정보를 중심으로 진료 및 관리체계를 구축하는 것이 중요한 병원관리 영역이 될 것이다. 이를 위해 ARIS 툴을 이용하여 원무프로세스를 분석하고 재설계하였다. 외래원무프로세스 재설계후의 결과를 AHP 기법을 통해서 분석하였고 그 결과를 예시하였다.
