BCIS was developed between 1984 to 1988 by the Beth Israel Hospital (Center for Clinical Computing) minicomputer-based MIIS system and Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH).
The initial focus of development was to create a new client-server technical platform that would support the hospital's continuing expansion and provide the processing power and scaleability needed for future developments (Teich, et al. 1999). A secondary focus was to change the role of computers in healthcare by creating new clinical informations systems.
