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.

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 …
Electronic Health Record (Ehr) Adoption: Failure Or Success?, Madison Ngafeeson
Electronic Health Record (Ehr) Adoption: Failure Or Success?, Madison Ngafeeson
Conference Presentations
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 …

Meaningful Use And Meaningful Curricula: A Survey Of Health Informatics Programs In The U.S., Kai Koong, Madison Ngafeeson, Lai Lui
Journal Articles
The introduction of the US government’s Meaningful Use criteria carries with it many implications including the training curriculum of healthcare personnel. This study examines 108 health informatics degree programmes across the USA. First, the courses offered are identified and classified into generic classes. Next, these generic groupings are mapped to two important frameworks: the Learning to Manage Health Information (LMHI) academic framework; and the Meaningful Use criteria policy framework. Results suggest that while current curricula seemed acceptable in addressing Meaningful Use Stage 1 objective, there was insufficient evidence that these curricula could support Meaningful Use Stage 2 and …
