“…Generally speaking, we can say that the highest rated functionalities are those that have long been present in the local market, while the new and advanced functionalities, yet to be introduced and encouraged. Comparing with the results of some of our previous research,34 Croatian FDs are still not enough motivated and the local health authorities are still not enough interested in this kind of study.…”

Background Family medicine practices (FMPs) make the basis for the Croatian health care system. Use of electronic health record (EHR) software is mandatory and it plays an important role in running these practices, but important functional features still remain uneven and largely left to the will of the software developers. Objective The objective of this study was to develop a novel and comprehensive model for functional evaluation of the EHR software in FMPs, based on current world standards, models and projects, as well as on actual user satisfaction and requirements. Methods Based on previous theoretical and experimental research in this area, we made the initial framework model consisting of six basic categories as a base for online survey questionnaire. Family doctors assessed perceived software quality by using a five-point Likert-type scale. Using exploratory factor analysis and appropriate statistical methods over the collected data, the final optimal structure of the novel model was formed. Special attention was focused on the validity and quality of the novel model. Results The online survey collected a total of 384 cases. The obtained results indicate both the quality of the assessed software and the quality in use of the novel model. The intense ergonomic orientation of the novel measurement model was particularly emphasised. Conclusions The resulting novel model is multiple validated, comprehensive and universal. It could be used to assess the user-perceived quality of almost all forms of the ambulatory EHR software and therefore useful to all stakeholders in this area of the health care informatisation.

“…functionalities that are derived from a combination of basic categories. For example, by combining data from several basic categories, we can analyse functionalities such as the implementation of working guidelines and decision support systems (Kralj et al, 2010), or patients' privacy and safety protection (Kralj et al, 2011). We entered in the designing process of our measurement tool with the main idea to construct and implement an open type methodology.…”
