Health Care Provider Adoption of eHealth: Systematic Literature Review
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: eHealth is an application of information and communication technologies across the whole range of functions that affect health. The benefits of eHealth (eg, improvement of health care operational efficiency and quality of patient care) have previously been documented in the literature. Health care providers (eg, medical doctors) are the key driving force in pushing eHealth initiatives. Without their acceptance and actual use, those eHealth benefits would be unlikely to be reaped. OBJECTIVE: To identify and synthesize influential factors to health care providers' acceptance of various eHealth systems. METHODS: This systematic literature review was conducted in four steps. The first two steps facilitated the location and identification of relevant articles. The third step extracted key information from those articles including the studies' characteristics and results. In the last step, identified factors were analyzed and grouped in accordance with the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). RESULTS: This study included 93 papers that have studied health care providers' acceptance of eHealth. From these papers, 40 factors were identified and grouped into 7 clusters: (1) health care provider characteristics, (2) medical practice characteristics, (3) voluntariness of use, (4) performance expectancy, (5) effort expectancy, (6) social influence, and (7) facilitating or inhibiting conditions. CONCLUSIONS: The grouping results demonstrated that the UTAUT model is useful for organizing the literature but has its limitations. Due to the complex contextual dynamics of health care settings, our work suggested that there would be potential to extend theories on information technology adoption, which is of great benefit to readers interested in learning more on the topic. Practically, these findings may help health care decision makers proactively introduce interventions to encourage acceptance of eHealth and may also assist health policy makers refine relevant policies to promote the eHealth innovation.

TL;DR
This systematic review synthesized 93 papers on health care providers’ acceptance of eHealth and identified 40 factors grouped into 7 clusters using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). It concludes that UTAUT is useful for organizing the literature but has limitations because health care contexts involve factors and correlations not covered by the model.
Key findings
- From 93 included papers, 40 factors were identified and grouped into 7 clusters: health care provider characteristics, medical practice characteristics, voluntariness of use, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating or inhibiting conditions.
- Most studies were conducted in North America (72/93, 77%), followed by Europe (9/93, 10%) and Asia (7/93, 8%); quantitative methods predominated (57/93 studies).
- EHR/EMR was the most studied eHealth application (57/93 studies), followed by telemedicine/telehealth (7/93 studies); most studies focused on physicians (68/93), while nurses and other health workers were recruited in 25 projects.
- The mapping showed UTAUT did not cover half of the health care provider characteristics (years in practice, role, and race) or medical practice characteristics; perceived usefulness had the strongest impact on health care providers’ behavioral intention in one cited study.
Methods
- Four-step systematic literature review: identification of resources, selection of relevant papers, data extraction, and data analysis/validation.
- Searches were run between October and November 2011 in 8 databases (Medline, Cinahl, Web of Science, PubMed, PsychInfo, ERIC, ProQuest Science Journals, EMBASE), yielding 3315 papers, 420 duplicates, 2895 unrepeated papers, and finally 93 relevant papers.
- Data analysis initially extracted 49 factors, combined closely related factors into 40, grouped them initially into 9 clusters, then regrouped into 7 clusters using UTAUT constructs and a validity procedure.
Limitations
- Stated: some papers may have been missed due to selected search phrases; database selection may have missed relevant work; mapping factors against UTAUT can be subjective.
- Evident from the text: most included studies were from the United States, and some factors are context sensitive (e.g., types of third-party payers reflect the US insurance context), limiting global generalizability.
- Evident from the text: findings include contradicting results across studies (e.g., on practice size and EMR use), and the review is a synthesis of existing studies rather than new primary data.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
