Abstract

Usage of information technology in health care is slowly changing the work of medical practitioners. This paper examines usage of a mobile information system, attitudes towards the system and the factors affecting usage and attitudes through a questionnaire survey of 379 medical practitioners in Finland. The physicians’ preferences were found to correlate with types of work and usage of Internet-based systems and, to a lesser extent, age, gender and education.
