State-of-the-art assessments of IT-based solutions in Healthcare is discussed in this paper. Special emphasis is placed on the human and organisation-centred perspective at the development of IT-based solutions. Based on this and basic conditions for system analysis and design reported in the literature, requirements for a methodology for user-driven, constructive assessment during the entire life-cycle of the IT-based system are synthesised. Finally, the outcome is discussed in the light of the presentations on technology assessment during the MIE 97 Congress and other related literature.
