“…From Table 1, it can be inferred that test results with SEM review conducted using the AMOS version of the program information technology 21 shows that notable positive impact on job satisfaction. This analysis indicates the findings were consistent with what is expressed Bhattacharya and Ramachandran (2015) IT was highlighted as one of the factors that could affect job satisfaction. Likewise raised by Chiu et.al (2007) that notes that the quality program affects user's satisfaction, the quality of information, and the use of the system.…”

“…The results of the analysis revealed that the CHCs with a low number of health workers (fewer than 10) are expected to have a low number of specialists. It is possible that those CHCs with a low number of health workers face a higher burden of work that forces specialists to move out to health facilities staffed with higher numbers of health workers, thus experiencing relatively lower burden [59, 60]. The results of the regression analysis also revealed that those CHCs that had residences available for specialists are expected to have a higher number of specialists than those CHCs that do not have residences for specialists.…”

Background The onus of providing affordable access to specialist services in rural India primarily lies with publicly funded rural hospitals, also known as community health centres (CHCs). However, no studies have attempted to measure the change in the shortage and distributional inequalities of specialists in the publicly funded rural hospitals of Uttar Pradesh (India). This study attempts to fill that gap. Methods The study uses data from the three latest rounds of the District-Level Household Survey, covering a period of 10 years spanning from 2002 to 2012. Shortages were measured against the Indian Public Health Standards for CHCs, and inequalities were measured using Gini and Theil indices, with the latter decomposed to reveal the source of the inequalities. Negative binomial regression was applied to examine the association between facility characteristics and the availability of specialists in CHCs. Results The current shortage of specialists stands at 80.7% of the total requirement. Currently, 62.1% of CHCs are functioning without a specialist. The distribution of specialists across CHCs has become progressively uneven over the study period, as shown by the rise in the Gini index (from 0.41 in 2002–2004 to 0.74 in 2012–2013). Decomposition analysis reveals that the contribution of within-district inequalities to overall inequality remains high (85.4% of total inequality). About 50% of within-district inequality is contributed by only 20 districts, most of which belong to eastern and central Uttar Pradesh. The analysis of factors affecting the distribution of the current specialist workforce revealed that the number of available specialists at a CHC is positively associated with the availability of residences for doctors and regular electricity supply, and negatively associated with CHC location and the distance of the CHC from the district headquarters. Conclusion The findings suggest that Uttar Pradesh not only needs to recruit more specialists, but it also requires proper implementation of deployment and retention policies to ensure equitable access to specialist care for rural populations. Ensuring the availability of quality accommodations and basic amenities at all CHCs, as well as adequate transport and rural allowance, could help increase the chances of specialists staying in rural and far-off CHCs.

“…Available studies on ICT in health in rural and remote areas have emphasised mainly the benefits of ICT in work processes with little attention to the contributions that ICT might make on the retention of health workers. Bahttacharya and Ramachandran [13] have suggested that ICT is among the factors that can reasonably influence health workers’ intention to stay in urban health facilities in India. Further, training and explaining the benefits of ICT to health workers may also improve retention.…”

BackgroundInformation and communication technologies have become a vital infrastructural asset for use in the retention of rural health workers. However, little is known about the potential influence of ICT use, perceptions of health workers on ICT in healthcare delivery, and contribution of ICT to health care providers’ retention in rural and remote areas in rural post-war and conflict situations of northern Uganda.MethodsData from interviews were transcribed, coded and thematically analysed.ResultsParticipants generally exhibited low confidence, knowledge and low ICT skills. Majority of participants, however, perceived ICT as beneficial in relation to job performance and health care provider retention in rural areas. Common barriers for the implementation and use of ICT in health centres were inadequate ICT knowledge and skills, poor Internet networks, inadequate computers, inadequate power supply, lack of Internet Modems and expensive access to outside computer centres.ConclusionsThis qualitative study showed low confidence, poor knowledge and skills in ICT usage but positive perceptions about the benefits and contributions of ICT. These findings suggest the need for specific investment in ICT infrastructural development for health care providers in remote rural areas of northern Uganda.
