Constructing a Health Information Systems Readiness Assessment Model for EMR Implementation
Authors(3) :-Damilola Oluyemi Merotiwon, Opeyemi Olamide Akintimehin, Opeoluwa Oluwanifemi Akomolafe The successful implementation of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) systems in healthcare institutions requires comprehensive readiness assessments to ensure infrastructural, human, and organizational alignment. This paper presents a literature-based model for assessing Health Information Systems (HIS) readiness for EMR deployment in diverse healthcare contexts. Drawing on an extensive review of existing models and global case studies, this study constructs a multidimensional readiness assessment framework incorporating technological infrastructure, workforce competencies, regulatory compliance, change management, and financial sustainability. The paper does not involve primary data collection but instead synthesizes over 100 peer-reviewed sources to present a robust, adaptable model to guide healthcare stakeholders in determining their preparedness for EMR adoption. The findings contribute to enhancing EMR implementation success rates, particularly in resource-variable settings.
