Information-based management practise is a method for making decisions and carrying out daily tasks that enables practitioners to assess how much they can trust the available evidence. Additionally, it aids professionals in locating, identifying, and assessing other data that is pertinent to their choices. In contrast to evidence-based medicine, evidence-based management has also received little attention in the healthcare industry. Unfortunately, there are internal and external barriers to its use, such as the culture of decision-making based on evidence, managers’ inadequate knowledge of the research process, managers’ mistrust of the values of research and researchers, inadequate research dissemination, and a lack of external pressure for adopting researched practises, that prevent leaders, policymakers, and managers, themselves, from using this approach. Understanding the justification for evidence-based practise implementation by hospital administrators is the goal of this chapter.
