Section 3 Benefit#1 (Increased Transparency)

HSE Service Plan 2015

Target12 Months(52 Weeks)

3.1 National Trends

3.3 Benefit #2 (Increase value, reduce costs)

1. (Costs): IT Direct Costs: PDF System - License costs, Cost of Changes, Upgrade & Support Costs.

2. (Value): But the Key Question is: “Who actually uses the PDF documents published on the web site ? ”a. Hospital Managers - NOb. Minister for Health - ? < Why not use the Hospital Waiting List Dashboard ? >

-> Publish Open Data at the monthly level, allow stakeholder groups to aggregate as required.

A Strategic Implementation of an Open Data based approach can reduce IT costs, while also providing increased capability for decision makers and civil society.
