abstract: 'Objectives The growth and development of smartphones and eHealth
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
technologies have enabled the potential for extended care hospitals
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(e-hospitals) in China in order to facilitate the success of a primary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
healthcare centre (PHC)-based integrated delivery model. Although the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
adoption of e-hospitals is essential, few studies have directed their
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
research towards understanding the perspectives of healthcare providers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This study aims to identify the current readiness of healthcare
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
providers to adopt e-hospital technologies, determine the factors
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
influencing this adoption and describe the perceived facilitators and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
barriers in regard to working at e-hospitals. Design A cross-sectional
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
study conducted in Sichuan, China, between June and September 2019.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Settings Information was collected from healthcare providers who have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
more than 3 years of work experience from a tertiary hospital, secondary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hospital, PHCs and private hospital. Participants 2298 medical
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
professionals were included in this study. Outcome measure This study
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
included a self-administered questionnaire that was used to assess
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participants'' sociodemographic characteristics, online medical
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
practices, willingness to use e-hospitals and perceived
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
facilitators/barriers to working at e-hospitals. Multivariate regression
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysis was performed in order to evaluate the independent factors
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
associated with e-hospital work. Results Overall, 86.3\% had a positive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
response towards working at e-hospitals. Age (p<0.05), familiarity with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
e-hospitals (p<0.001) and prior work practices in online healthcare
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
settings (p<0.001) were associated with participants'' readiness to work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
at e-hospitals. Gender, education level, professional level, the tier of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their affiliated hospital and workload were not statistically
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
associated. Healthcare providers who had positive attitudes towards
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
e-hospitals considered improved efficiency, patient satisfaction,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
communication among physicians, increased reputation and income, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
alleviated workload to be advantages of adoption. The participants who
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were unwilling to work at e-hospitals perceived lack of time,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
insufficient authenticity/reliability and underdeveloped policies as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
potential barriers. Conclusion Improving operative proficiency in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
electronic devices, accommodating to work schedules, increasing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
familiarity with e-hospitals and regulating practices will improve the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
readiness of healthcare providers to work at e-hospitals.'
