A. Gerson Greenburg
After a cogent and reflective argument, the author reaches the heart of the matter: Will physicians accept the change implied by and associated with the need to adopt the use of computers in medical practice This is an important question, considering the dynamic changes in the health care system. Few would argue the benefits that would accrue to the system, generally, and to the patients, specifically, if these fully operational information systems were implemented. Achieving that objective is the sticking point. The author provides some useful guidelines and general principles on how to achieve it in this well-written and well-documented paper. He applies concepts from the general literature on the adoption of innovation to the unique area of medical computing. This cross-fertilization and an awareness of the issues raised are important, because they foretell the difficulty that will be encountered when one tries to change a culture. The reasons behind the failure of medical computing to reach the clinical environment may never be known. Resistance from practitioners is one very real possibility. Given an outline and a set of procedures to implement useful and usable systems, perhaps the overall acceptance will be higher, and then the real benefits of computerization will be achieved. This paper presents the possibilities. All that remains is the implementation.
