In a recent article by Chang, 2013, solving the U.S. health care problems, it is stated that the need to pursue many strategies to address the problems. This article proposes the action strategy which takes into account decision factors important to healthcare organizations such as economic viability, technological feasibility, ease of implementation, and operational efficiency as well. The article states that if this strategy is implemented, a job the majority of healthcare organizations will be able to achieve is forward progress in cost reduction, quality enhancement, cycle time shortening and an increase in patient satisfaction (Chang, 2013). Practitioners in the IT management area are supposed to be well prepared to assist health care organizations and implementing these elements of the strategy is another problem that faces the American system. The VA system is a failure in itself. The health care reform really didn t address the veterans. These individuals who have protected the freedom and rights of the American citizens should be provided free healthcare and have access to set Health Care within a reasonable amount of time. In a recent article by Elnitsky, et. al,, 2013, discusses the US Department of Veteran Affairs implemented poly trauma system to meet the needs of the military veterans with multiple injuries from combat operations overseas (Elnitsky, 2013).

It is the context that makes a problem meaningful and something worth considering. For example, exercises that ask students to compute the mean of 10 numbers or to construct a dotplot or boxplot of 20 numbers without context are arithmetic and graphing exercises. They become statistics problems only when a context gives them meaning and allows for interpretation.

Still, it is always difficult to abandon interesting cases that have stimulated student discussions and provoked useful insights, but newer case possibilities are ever contesting for inclusion. Examples of good and bad handling of problems and opportunities are forever emerging. But sometimes we bring back an oldie, and with updating, gain a new perspective. For new users, I hope the book will meet your full expectations and be an effective instructional tool.
