Examining Success In Health Information Technology Implementation Research, Madison Ngafeeson
Examining Success In Health Information Technology Implementation Research, Madison Ngafeeson
Conference Presentations
The implementation of health information systems (IS) is rapidly increasing. In the United States, $70 billion will be invested by the government to facilitate the adoption of the electronic health record over a ten-year period. However, IS acceptance is not success. We use content analysis to investigate the success component.
Electronic Health Record (Ehr) Adoption: Failure Or Success?, Madison Ngafeeson
Electronic Health Record (Ehr) Adoption: Failure Or Success?, Madison Ngafeeson
Madison Ngafeeson
Electronic Health Record (EHR) is hailed as a health information technology with great potential to significantly boost healthcare outcomes, reduce medical errors, increase legibility and minimize healthcare costs. The implementation of EHRs is expected to be completely mandatory in the United States by 2015. While evidence of EHR system implementation in research goes back over fifteen years ago, and is continually increasingly being adopted, it would seem be a good time to pause and take critical look down the years. Can it be said that EHR implementation has been a success, or, perhaps a failure? This study explores the subject …

Journal Articles
The US healthcare system is clearly experiencing a major transition. By 2015, the healthcare sector is expected to have migrated from a paper record system to a completely electronic health record (EHR) system. The adoption and use of these systems are expected to increase legibility, reduce costs, limit medical errors and improve the overall quality of healthcare. Hence, the US government is investing $70 billion over a 10-year period to facilitate the transition to an electronic system. However, early reports show that physicians and nurses among other health professionals continue to resist the full use of the system. This paper …

Recognizing Patient Safety Importance Through Instrument Validation On Physicians' Assessment Of An Ehr, Cherie Notebloom, Kathryn Dempsey Cooper
Recognizing Patient Safety Importance Through Instrument Validation On Physicians' Assessment Of An Ehr, Cherie Notebloom, Kathryn Dempsey Cooper
Interdisciplinary Informatics Faculty Proceedings & Presentations
Patient safety and high quality patient care are critical concerns for healthcare providers. The Institute of Medicine report suggests medical errors account for up to 98,000 patient deaths each year. Therefore, the US healthcare system is looking to information technology applications as one means of making patient care safer. This paper compares the psychometric properties of the Electronic Health Record Nurse Satisfaction instrument (based on the Health Information Technology Research-based Evaluation Framework) to our study that employed the same instrument but measured clinical physicians' opinions of an EHR to determine if the instrument could be used across domains of users. …
