“…Moreover, “ institution type ” and “cap ability of the institution to use information technology ” were other factors affecting Technological Readiness scores in the medical staff group participating in the study. Usage of technology and information security are two essential components in the provision of healthcare services ( 6 , 29 ). When role-based usage profile is considered, all the users’ experiences may have an impact on the readiness status of organizations.…”

Background: Health information technologies (HITs) present numerous opportunities for the improvement and transformation of healthcare, which include reducing human errors, improving clinical outcomes, facilitating care coordination, improving efficiency of practice and tracking data over time. HITs involve various technologies that range from simple charting, to a more advanced decision support and integration with medical technology. Objective: The aims of this study were to examine the readiness for the implementation of health information technologies (HITs) among medical and administrative staff as well as to evaluate the effects of information security status on the readiness. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 236 medical employees (F/M: 192/44; mean age: 34±7.43 years) and 139 administrative employees (F/M: 93/46, mean age: 36±7.64 years) from 15 public health institutions in Kocaeli, Marmara Region were included. The data were collected via a structured questionnaire regarding opinions about information security and privacy, use of information technologies and the Organizational Information Technology Innovation Readiness Scale ( OITIRS ). After an explanatory factor analysis was performed for the scale, two subgroups regarding Organizational Readiness and Technological Readiness were obtained. Binary logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate related factors for these subgroups of OITIRS . Results: According to binary logistic regression analysis, establishing of a password management system was found to be a crucial factor for both organizational and technological readiness among medical and administrative employees in health institutions (p<0.05). The enhancement of collaboration among staff by implementing information technologies was a critical factor for the medical staff; whereas, the attitude of employees to ensure information security was an important factor for the administrative employees in both subgroups ( p <0.05). Conclusion: Both medical and administrative unit employees stated that establishing a password management system that determines the frequency of changing passwords in the organization would affect both organizational and technical readiness in healthcare institutions.

“…These applications enable multiple-users to communicate simultaneously and share e-data easily and swiftly (13). As for the urgent demands of the health personnel, the prompts of the physicians can imediately be responded on line and medical errors significantly decreased, thanks to information technologies (20,21,22,23). Moreover, the necessary structural modifications in the ongoing education and training of the medical staff can conveniently be made and updated as frequently as needed.…”

Introduction: Computer Engineering Students (CES) and Medical Students (MS) will actively participate in the management of health information system in the future. Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the views of CES and MS about the patient privacy and security of health information systems. Methods: The participants of this cross-sectional study were the 3 rd and 4 th year CES of Marmara University, (n=163, F/M:71/92) and the 5 th and 6 th year MS of Marmara University (n=65, F/M:38/27). The data were collected via questionnaire comprising questions and statements about patient information security and confidentiality. Responses were prepared on the basis of 5 Point Likert Scale. Results: During the assessment of the questionnaires, it was observed that the statement "Health records should be accessible to the other health workers besides the physician" discomforted more CES (93,3%) than MS (78,5%) (p=0.003). A similar proportion was observed about "On-line communication with the physician" more CES (87,1%) prefer to communicate with the physician via electronic media than do the MS (66,2%) (p=0.001).Another significant point to be noted about the questionnaire results was that slightly more CES (40,5%) favor restrictions on the accessibility of "personal correspondance information" than MS (35,4%) (p>0.05). Conclusion: In the future, CES, who will be both internal and external stakeholders of the multi-disciplinary structure of healthcare management, thought that problems regarding security and privacy may occur. Therefore, the relation between health information system and the occupational education and training of CES and MS are extremely important through the perspective in healthcare management.
