Critical Success Factors for Adoption of Electronic Health Record Systems: Literature Review and Prescriptive Analysis

摘要

Adoption of electronic health record systems in healthcare has been relatively slow. This article proposes critical success factors for electronic health record adoption based on a comprehensive literature review and prescriptive analysis. The proposed 26 critical success factors for electronic health records are of value to both practice and research: practitioners are offered guidance with regard to managing electronic health record implementations toward adoption success, while researchers are offered a basis for further research about electronic health record implementation and adoption.
