“…Most prior studies address the adoption of a specific type of IT, such as EHRs (Aldosari, 2014;Cherry, Carter, Owen, & Lockhart, 2008;Paré et al, A c c e p t e d M a n u s c r i p t 6 2014; Yoon, Chang, Kang, Bae, & Park, 2012), nursing systems (Hsiao, Li, Chen, & Ko, 2009), radio frequency identification (RFID) (Lee & Shim, 2007), customer relationship management systems (CRMS) (Hung, Hung, Tsai, & Jiang, 2010), hospital information systems (HIS) (Wang, Wan, Burke, Bazzoli, & Lin, 2005), and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) (Chang et al, 2006). Other studies have limited their investigations to the state of HIT adoption and its use (Abraham et al, 2011;DesRoches et al, 2013;Jha et al, 2008;Shu et al, 2014;Zhang et al, 2013).…”
