Abstract
Electronic Medical Records (EMR) are expected to increase efficiency, quality of care, and patient safety, yet most studies find that fewer than 25% of hospitals and physicians have adopted them. Theories posit that prior experience with EMR in medical school and residency programs will lead to greater acceptance of EMR among physicians. This work explores the potential relationship between prior experience and adoption of EMR technology among physicians.
