Abstract
[This is an excerpt.] In July 2016, The American Medical Association conducted a comprehensive study of physician’s motivations and requirements for the adoption of digital clinical tools. The AMA repeated the study to determine the degree to which adoption has occurred in the past 3 years and identify attitudinal shifts among physicians towards their use and adoption. The goals for this research were to update the 2016 and 2019 studies to determine: 1. Any change in overall interest in digital health tools and the degree to which physicians believe they will help or hinder their patient care 2. Current familiarity with 7 specific digital health tools and physician enthusiasm, belief in the relevance to their practice, timeline for incorporating or current use 3. For each tool, the motivators and level of disruption caused or foreseen 4. The ideal level of involvement physicians would like to have in adoption decisions 5. An understanding of enthusiasm, current usage and requirements for emerging technologies. [To read more, click View Resource.]
