Purpose: This research aims to study factors associated with health information exchange (HIE), by systematic review.
Methodology: The review is done by searching for research articles in Thai and English. A collection of literature published from 2010 to 2020 was drawn from PubMed, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, ProQuest, Google Scholar, Tci-Thaijo, and ThaiLIS. Articles were selected to study factors related with health information exchange. Articles were reviewed, analyzed, and coded using a qualitative content analysis approach.
Findings: A total of 748 articles were found from 2010 to 2020. Articles was excluded from duplicate or irrelevant 245 articles, and in the final, there were 18 articles included for review. All are in English. Factors related to and obstacles of HIE include partner readiness, knowledge of health IT, security & privacy, re-designing workflow process, interoperability efforts, information quality of EHRs, IT infrastructure, incentive, policy & governance, HIE adoption & trust, leadership support, cost, and motivation & perceived value.
Application of this Study: Facilitators and barriers of health information exchange could be categorized into 4 domains: policy and governance, organization and network, technology and standards, and users. This study supports the conceptual framework for the development model of health information exchange in Thailand. The factors associated with the success or failure of health information exchange were also included.
