SUMMARY

EMR Implementation The adaption of Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) implementations have resulted in low usage by physicians. As a result, a study was conducted to determine barriers of slow adoption rates and to identify suggestions to overcome barriers. As a result, implementers would have analysis provided for future rollouts of EMRs.

Methodology

The study was performed using four different types of publications, which totaled to 22 studies conducted between 1998 - 2009. A selection process was created for identifying articles. As many barriers were identified, a taxonomy of EHRs was developed: Financial, Technical, Time, Psychological, Social, Legal, Organizational, and Change Process.

Result Highlights

The study revealed the two different barriers: primary (first level physicians exposure to) and secondary (not directly impacted but maybe be integrated in primary barriers). Practice size influenced the type of barrier presented for the rollout of EHRs. It was noted that Organizational and Change Process classifications were imbedded with the other barriers.

Conclusion / Summary of Key Points

The study reviewed the reasons that physicians were slow in utilizing EHRs. It notes that implementations significantly impacted ways of working. The analysis from the study showed that Organizational and Change Management barriers facilitate the rollout of EMR implementations.
