“…In addition, many previous studies have investigated EMR adoption and use for large organization such as hospitals or the perceptions of health information systems at an individual user level (Reardon & Davidson, 2007), and one cannot easily apply their findings to small organizations. Scholars also recognize that little research has conducted theory-grounded investigations into small medical practices' adopting EMR systems because of the diversity of issues that these organizations face (Boonstra, Boddy, & Bell, 2008;Reardon & Davidson, 2007).…”

Abstract:In this paper, we develop and validate a comprehensive theoretical model of electronic medical record (EMR) system adoption in Canadian medical practices. Canada lags other developed countries in the adoption of information technology (IT) in healthcare, and medical practice adoption of EMRs is particularly low. Most Canadian medical practices have the distinct feature of blending characteristics of both individual physicians and small clinics in private practice. We built a theoretical model combining individual-type and organizational-type perceptions (from one point of view) and opportunities and barriers (from another point of view) and tested it with 119 physicians from across Canada. Results show a reasonably valid model explaining 55.3 percent of the physicians' intent to adopt EMRs in their clinics. We found that physicians would adopt EMRs if they saw these systems as first being easy to use and second as being useful. Physicians' innovativeness regarding the use of new IT was an additional favoring factor. Conversely, physicians would choose not to adopt EMRs if they feared such systems would not perform as expected, would involve possible legal and privacy risks, would affect clinics' productivity, and would not be a justified adoption altogether. Overall, we found that physicians saw more opportunities than obstacles in using EMRs in their practices.

“…9 Failure to meet stakeholders' expectations in the simulation projects has been a common phenomenon, mainly as a result of lack of shared views between simulation providers and customers about the concept of success in the simulation projects. 10 The literature provides strong evidence that ''user/stakeholder engagement and support'' is the critical factor in the successful ending of various change projects in general, [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] and simulation projects in particular. 21,22 Recent studies in the context of healthcare suggest that ''low stakeholder engagement'' has created a significant limitation on the achievement of simulation modeling projects.…”

Causal factors of low stakeholder engagement: a survey of expert opinions in the context of healthcare simulation projects

While simulation methods have proved to be very effective in identifying efficiency gains, low stakeholder engagement creates a significant limitation on the achievement of simulation modeling projects in practice. This study reports causal factors-at two hierarchical levels (i.e., primary and secondary)-that could significantly affect low stakeholder engagement in healthcare simulation projects. A self-completed questionnaire was administered online to 91 experts in the field from whom 37 responded. The results were reinforced using a bootstrapped sample (n = 1000). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Kendal's tau-b correlations, and non-linear multiple regression. Based on our research, while such factors as ''communication gap'', ''stakeholders' high workload'', and ''too much complexity involved'' represent the most significant primary causal factors, some others such as ''reluctance to change'' proved interestingly insignificant. The research suggests that high-impact public health projects can exemplify the areas that will potentially generate engagement in the healthcare simulation domain.

“…In the UK in 2009, for instance, the government abandoned the national ID card scheme as a result of unresolved concerns around privacy and data protection (Whitley & Hosein, 2009). Likewise, in the Netherlands, the national electronic patient file was cancelled after public protest (Boonstra, Boddy, & Bell, 2008), and several states in the United States have developed legislation against the forced microchipping of persons (California bans, 2007).…”

Confusion, control and comfort: premediating identity management in film and television

A number of national and international agencies have pointed to identity management (IM) as one of the main private and public challenges of the future. The issue is subject to intense public controversy and contestation, especially with respect to access to, usage and ownership of personal data. Most work about IM assumes users to be rational actors making instrumental choices on the basis of perceived usefulness and efficiency; cultural narratives hardly ever come up in current research about acceptance of new identity management technologies (IMTs). Screen representations do not prescribe certain meanings around IM, but create and delineate horizons of imagination; repositories of meanings from which people can draw to make sense of innovations and their consequences. In this paper, we focus on a sample of films, television and web series to examine how IMTs are premediated. Our analysis suggests that a whole range of future IM (knowledge-and token-based, as well as biometric/implant) technologies is imagined here, with biometric and implant technologies most likely to be taken to (dystopian) extremes. Stories of identity theft and confusion, surveillance and control, comfort and corruption construct them as potentially problematic and always under threat, as well as calling up existential concerns about what it means to be human. We conclude that these dark horizons are anchored in myth and persistent fears about who we are, and thus that new means of IM face a difficult task in gaining users' trust.
