by Liping Liu, Qingxiong Ma
International Journal of Healthcare Technology and Management (IJHTM), Vol. 5, No. 3/4/5, 2003

Abstract: The software industry is currently undergoing a revolutionary transition from software as products to software as services. In this paper, we introduce emerging e-business technologies including application services, web services, and grid services. We show how these technologies help surmount economic and technical obstacles to adopting electronic medical records, and propose a service provision model for implementing the infrastructure for sharing medical records. Finally, by extending the technology acceptance model, we show how cognitive factors impact the acceptance of application services by healthcare workers.
