This distinguished study text is an ideal resource provides valuable information for those involved in planning and implementation of e-health technology in developing countries. The book answers four critical questions faced by the health care organizations who decide to adopt e-health technology: 1) How ready are stakeholders to accept and implement e-health? 2) What health and ICT infrastructure needs exist? 3) What e-health solutions would best serve the needs of the population? 4) What are the perceived barriers and facilitators for adoption? In addition, this book presents a comprehensive coverage of a relatively new topic (e-Health Readiness), assessing the readiness of health care system stakeholders using qualitative case study methodology, explores the potential of e-Health technology in providing health care professionals with effective solutions to many problems of growing demand for health care services under conditions of limited resources. The author uses innovation adoption and change models, and uniquely aligns them with a more recent e-health readiness model, incorporating various determinants at both the organizational and the individual level.
