  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: A Hierarchical Decision Model (HDM) for Exploring the Adoption of Electronic Health Records Author: Mudavadi, Caroline, Hogaboam, Liliya, Daim, Tugrul Unsal Year: 2016 Information systems have been making a noticeable entrance in the healthcare, although their adoption has been slow. This paper examines the factors influencing the electronic healthcare records (EHR) adoption by modeling behavioral intention of physicians towards EHR adoption. Three main criteria: perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and external factors along with the subcriteria, are studied by the authors. Analytical hierarchical process (AHP) model is tested through the expert judgment quantification of physicians in Portland metro area. The results showed high importance of the Perceived Ease of Use criteria on the behavioral intensions of physicians towards EHR adoption. Search ability and user interface - subcriteria of Perceived Ease of Use had some of the highest values. Another important subcriterion in the analysis under External Factors Criteria was Cost. None of the criteria evaluated could be considered unimportant, i.e. having really low values after the analysis. The results indicate that EHR should be mandatory in terms of reducing of time spent and errors, improving the outcomes and productivity and in terms of optimum patient treatment. © 2016 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology, Inc.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Analysis and Evaluation of Criteria Impacting HER Adoption With AHP Model Author: Hogaboam, Liliya, Ju, Jiali, Ucar, Duygu, Mudavadi, Caroline Year: 2011 Information systems have been making a noticeable entrance in the healthcare, although their adoption has been slow. This paper examines the factors influencing the electronic healthcare records (EHR) adoption by modeling behavioral intention of physicians towards EHR adoption. Three main criteria: perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and external factors along with the subcriteria, are studied by the authors. Analytical hierarchical process (AHP) model is tested through the expert judgment questionnaire of physicians in Portland metro area. PCM software and Excel were used analyze the results of the pairwise comparisons done by the experts. The results showed high importance of the Perceived Ease of Use criteria on the behavioral intensions of physicians towards EHR adoption. Search ability and user interface – subcriteria of Perceived Ease of Use had some of the highest values. Another important subcriterion in the analysis under External Factors Criteria was Cost. None of the criteria evaluated could be considered unimportant, i.e. having really low values after the analysis. All of the respondents think that EHR should be mandatory in terms of reducing of time spent and errors, improving the outcomes and productivity and in terms of optimum patient treatment.

Trust improved extensively compared to the initial stages of forming and storming. Our team valued each other’s opinion and implemented this mandate into the rules. Team learned to appreciate the differences and strengthen relationships through positive and constructive feedback. Team confronted ‘issues but not the people’. Overall, our Norming stage was the inflection point which moved us towards the high performing team curve.
