    Area of Science:

    • Health Informatics
    • Information Systems Management

    Background:

    • Hospitals frequently invest in advanced computer systems.
    • Underutilization of these systems is a common challenge in healthcare settings.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the extent of hospital computer system underutilization.
    • To identify the role of vendors in this underutilization.
    • To propose solutions for improving system adoption.

    Main Methods:

    • A survey was conducted among 620 hospitals.
    • Data was collected on the usage of computer system functionalities.

    Main Results:

    • Hospitals utilize less than 25% of their computer system's capabilities.
    • Vendors provide inadequate assistance to hospitals for proper system implementation and use.
