Abstract
In today's fast changing health care sector, decision makers are facing a growing demand for both clinical and administrative information in order to comply with legal and customer-specific requirements. The use of Business Intelligence (BI) is seen as possible solution to this actual challenge. As the constituent research about BI is primarily focussed on the industrial sector, it is the aim of this contribution to translate and amend the current findings for the health care context. For this purpose, different definitions of BI are examined and condensed in a framework. Furthermore, the sector-specific preconditions to effectively use and the future role of BI are discussed.
