dc.description.abstract | Electronic health record is a response that covers the need of all engaged parties including patients,
doctors, clinical staff, insurance companies, health care providers and policy makers by providing timely information. Limitations of paper-based records are influencing a transition across the globe towards Electronic Health Records (EHR). However, despite the well documented benefits of electronic Health records, adoption in developing countries particularly Uganda remains a great challenge. This study was aimed at identifying the different factors that influence the adoption of EHR in referral hospital of Uganda. Most of these factors were identified and as part of future work, more studies need to be done to find out of similar factors influence adoption in smaller health units and other countries. | en_US |
