Web-Based PHR (Personal Health Records) Systems Adoption: Patients' Perspectives
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to find factors which explain patients' intention to use web-based personal health records (PHR). It is hypothesized that patients' perceived value of information, perceived worthwhileness of searching, concerns about privacy issues, trust in information, and perceived security on web-based PHR systems are related to patients' intention to use PHRs. Using data from health information national trends survey (HINTS), direct and indirect effects of these factors on patients' intention to use PHRs were analyzed. The results show that perceived value of information, privacy, information trust, and security have significant and direct associations to intention to use PHRs. Meanwhile, perceived value of information is a strong antecedent of perceived worthwhileness of searching; however, it has no direct association to intention to use PHRs. The findings suggest that the efforts should be targeted to increase perceived value of the information and trust in privacy and security as well as the information to increase patients' intention to use PHRs.
