520 $a Health Information Technology (HIT) has become an important and necessary vehicle for various stakeholders, including medical doctors, nurses, patients, health care administrators, managers, providers, insurers, researchers, professionals, and the public in general.
520 $a The past decade has seen the rapid advancement, development, adoption and diffusion of HIT. In general, Health Information Technology is a broad concept and encompasses various functions (i.e., clinical, administrative, managerial) and various goals (i.e., improving efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of the health care system; reducing medical errors; interconnecting clinicians and health care professionals; reducing health care costs; decreasing paperwork; and facilitating the speed of health care delivery). Therefore, the study of HIT is inherently challenging as it involves many facets that are often interconnected.
520 $a The rapid advancement and proliferation of HIT in the last decade has stimulated an increased interest among academicians in understanding the key drivers of HIT adoption and diffusion. The focus of this dissertation is to assess the value, significance and adoption patterns of HIT at both micro (i.e., physician) and macro (i.e., hospital) levels using alternative theoretical lenses and methodologies.
520 $a The overall results indicate that the adoption of HIT in its current form at the macro level is not necessarily dependent on organizational, financial or environmental characteristics of hospitals but is more a reflection of targeted policies for facilitating HIT adoption among the late majority hospitals. With the passage of time, the importance of hospital characteristics in terms of HIT adoption is diminishing; particularly for the long-existing HIT applications. On the contrary, the adoption of HIT at the micro level is at least partially driven by organizational factors, such as social and financial influence. Therefore, there is a disconnect between drivers and diffusion of HIT adoption at macro versus micro levels. Successful HIT adoption requires bridging the gap between HIT adoption at the macro and micro levels by promoting the potential benefits of HIT adoption and taking into consideration the unique needs of end-users.
