Cultural Considerations in Physician-Patient Relationships, With an Emphasis on Electronic Health Record
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Good and healthy communication between physician and patient is cornerstone of a complete medical care that has long been considered in sociology. From the classical point of view, the physician-patient relationship as a unique relationship encompasses a wide range of cultural and social influences. Electronic health record not only has facilitated the treatment and diagnosis process, but also has promoted the health care system by organizing patient records; however, it alters the physician-patient relationship process culturally and it will create new ethical challenges. Based on current findings and analyses Opinions of health experts about the cultural and communication dimensions of this technology, the electronic health record, despite its effectiveness, easy and convenient diagnosis, awareness of other physicians' diagnosis, earlier and better treatment, has cultural obstacles such as security, reduction of emotional and face-to-face actions, and fear of social stigma. Having a suitable cultural context and information and awareness can affect development of health technology. The results of this study, which have identified the role of culture on physician-patient relationships in context of using electronic health record, shows that building trust in patients and changing cultural conditions through education and improving system security can increase the efficiency of this system in health care processes.
