Evaluating eHealth Interventions: The Need for Continuous Systemic Evaluation
PLoS Medicine, 08/19/09

Catwell L et al. – The authors have proposed a novel approach to evaluation that they believe addresses this need, while facilitating an evaluation of events leading up to the new system and continuing long after it has been implemented.
