“…Previously reported financial concerns from physicians regarding the EMR such as high up-front cost of EMR implementation, slow and uncertain financial payoffs, and high physician time cost were not found in our study because of the centralised financial management of public primary care services in Cyprus. 12 Other important barriers, such as difficulties with technology, software deficiencies, lack of incentives, inadequate technical support, and legal concerns reported in our study as well as in other studies, may be successfully resolved in a systematic way. 6,[25][26][27][28] Several findings of our study are worth further comment.…”

Background The computer-based electronic medical record (EMR) is an essential new technology in health care, contributing to high-quality patient care and efficient patient management. The majority of southern European countries, however, have not yet implemented universal EMR systems and many efforts are still ongoing. We describe the development of an EMR system and its pilot implementation and evaluation in two previously computernaïve public primary care centres in Cyprus. Methods One urban and one rural primary care centre along with their personnel (physicians and nurses) were selected to participate. Both qualitative and quantitative evaluation tools were used during the implementation phase. Qualitative data analysis was based on the framework approach, whereas quantitative assessment was based on a nine-item questionnaire and EMR usage parameters. Results Two public primary care centres participated, and a total of ten health professionals served

The creation of an electronic patient record (EPR) system with a user-friendly interface based on the concept of the episode of care was considered an urgent priority in the present Greek context, where a Health Care Reform program is in progress. This paper reports the procedures of developing an EPR system, and outlines some of its essentials and key issues. We performed a systematic review and analyzed the perceptions and patterns of use of existing EPR systems among Greek general practitioners. On the basis of this analysis, Transhis was selected using defined criteria for appropriateness, efficiency, and feasibility for general practice as a prototype, for creating a Windows-based EPR system using the International Classification of Primary Care (ICPC-2) and International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) as classifications. The new EPR system seems appropriate for use within the current Greek primary care setting. Further studies are required for its evaluation.
