N2  - Recent history of healthcare software is littered with failures, mostly attributable to bad design and the inability to capture user community's needs and workflows. This paper presents a new agile
methodology aiming at improving engineering practises in Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE)-enabled projects in small-to-medium scale hospitals and healthcare organizations. The work described herein is the result of a compilation of experiences in the eld. The methodology
is based on a successfull software methodology, called Scrum centered on IHE specications and aims at providing value by making IHE developments easier and more predictable.
