Ten years after the adoption of the HITECH Act of 2009, eMessaging
and the Physician/Patient Dynamic: Practices in Transition examines
the complex, interlocking forces at play when mandates for
electronic health records (EHRs) and electronic messaging within
secured health portals forced an unprecedented transformation of
the healthcare environment. Technological, sociological, medical,
economic, political, governmental, legal, and communication issues
converged, forever altering the “medicological environment,” a
space within which health professionals and patients alike strive
towards efficacious, satisfying transactions that lead to improved
health. Susan M. Wieczorek’s analysis discusses the layers of
policies and regulations that thrust healthcare users—often
unwillingly—into the newly required practice of online
communication between physicians and patients. Wieczorek also
compares and contrasts rural and urban early adoption practices
through the use of surveys, critical incident reports, and oral
histories and anticipates future trends in data mining of
electronic messaging by demonstrating a content analysis of over
60,000 electronic medical transactions within secured health
portals. This book identifies the key converging influences that
affected the real-life, early adopters amid this transformation
process and provides a practical foundation for current, on-going
practice applications while anticipating the inevitable challenges
of future health communication technologies. Scholars of
communication, health, and media studies will find this book
particularly useful.
