This study examines six hospital Web sites selected from more than two thousand U.S. hospital Web sites based on their uniqueness. The case study aims to find out why and how these hospitals or hospital systems are using e-health videos. The study concludes that developing outstanding e-health videos for the Web is not limited to financially or technologically privileged hospitals. Developing e-health videos requires a hospital administration’s technological awareness, a strategic plan, and dedication. A good strategy includes knowing what to emphasize on a Web site, presenting with consistency, and using up-to-date technology. The study also concludes that more patient education videos need to be produced to further develop visitor trust and increase market competitiveness, and that ROI measurement for using e-health videos needs to be enhanced.","PeriodicalId":133558,"journal":{"name":"e-Service Journal","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133867237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We need to better understand which drug-related information sources, including those on the Internet, are best for answering these questions. This paper presents data from documented information search and retrieval efforts performed under the supervision of a pharmacist, seeking answers to drug-related questions. This study uses media richness theory to inform hypotheses about information source uses. The hypotheses center on the premise that reducing uncertainty is the key to compiling a complete and accurate answer; information sources are judged based on their actual performance in supplying the answers to questions submitted to a professional drug information center. The findings of this exploratory study based on logistical and OLS regressions suggest the type of question being asked significantly influences an expert pharmacist’s decision not to consult certain information sources. The findings further suggest that, depending on the type of question being asked, certain sources are much less useful than others in helping arrive at a complete answer. If pharmacists and other health professionals know what influences the sources that experts consult and which sources are the most useful, their ability to get answers to questions is likely to improve, which in turn will improve the quality of care they provide to patients. These findings have implications for theory and practice.","PeriodicalId":133558,"journal":{"name":"e-Service Journal","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134339259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents an explanatory study that examines the vendor selection process using data from a large online service marketplace. Theories from production economics, resource dependency, and software risk management are applied in a small-firm context. The empirical results suggest that a client’s utility function increases with a lower bid price, shorter lead-time, higher vendor average feedback rating, higher degree of vendor experience, and domestic (U.S.) location. There was not sufficient evidence to support strategically differentiated vendor selection behavior with respect to project value (or price). This study’s findings help understand patterns of bid evaluation in online auctions, where a large percentage of transactions consist of small IT projects.","PeriodicalId":133558,"journal":{"name":"e-Service Journal","volume":"61 1-2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120913765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has partly been ascribed to the particularly complex settings of e-government projects, consisting of a variety of stakeholders promoting different and often conflicting objectives. Yet few studies have explicitly addressed the inherent challenges of this diversity. This study presents an analytical approach for investigating contradictory stakeholder interests by combining descriptive stakeholder theory and dialectic process theory. Descriptive stakeholder theory is concerned with why some stakeholder claims are attended to. Dialectic process theory views organizational change and development as the result of contradictory values competing for domination. The approach is illustrated through empirical data from a Government-to-Government (G2G) project in Norway, focusing on information technology related collaboration between two regional clusters of municipalities. The analytical approach proved useful for identifying how contradictory stakeholder interests represented barriers for realizing the objectives of this project. We argue that combining descriptive stakeholder theory with dialectic process theory provides a powerful analytical tool for identifying potential conflicts between stakeholders, which can prove valuable for both e-government research and practice.","PeriodicalId":133558,"journal":{"name":"e-Service Journal","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124199188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although new mobile payment systems have been increasingly introduced in Asia, Europe and the United States, their adoption has remained modest. Little research has been conducted to examine and explain adopters’ views on the new payment technology. In this article, we explore merchant adoption of mobile payment systems empirically and discuss factors that drive and inhibit their adoption. Our results suggest that the main adoption drivers are related to the means of increasing sales or reducing the costs of payment processing, whereas the barriers to adoption include complexity of the systems, unfavorable revenue sharing models, lack of critical mass, and lack of standardization. Based on our findings, we propose a conceptual framework of adoption enablers, drivers and barriers with propositions to guide future research in this emerging area. Implications for practice and means to overcome the barriers are suggested.","PeriodicalId":133558,"journal":{"name":"e-Service Journal","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126336498","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, service semantics includes a formal description of services, and a formal description of the consumer goals and consumer tasks that utilize those services. A multi-dimensional ontology is suggested to capture the full semantics of services, and to separate it from their structure. The separation between semantics and structure allows describing bundles of services and service components independently of their structural relationships. Such multi-dimensional descriptions of services can be placed in universal directories to facilitate search, and component descriptions facilitate reuse of components to design and modify services dynamically. Finally, all organizations are characterized as collections of services for internal and external constituencies, and the formal semantics of services is suggested as a tool to develop a formal semantics for organizations. Possible solutions are suggested to many organizational issues, such as privacy, dissent, and organizational boundaries, by utilizing service bundling as a tool.","PeriodicalId":133558,"journal":{"name":"e-Service Journal","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131224401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, little is known about the factors leading to expectations or the ability of such factors to provide early predictions of satisfaction. We use social cognitive theory as a basis to propose that self-efficacy, past experiences (participation, knowledge, and Internet experience), and affective factors (prior satisfaction and enjoyment) will influence expectations of an e-health service. We test these factors in conjunction with the direct-effects model of satisfaction among patients registered for an e-health service. We find that these antecedents explain 57% of the variance (R2) in expectations. Further, early predictions made from antecedents during initial use of the e-health service explain 39% of the variance in satisfaction. Our findings suggest that the antecedents are important contributors to patients' expectations and can provide early guidance to development of successful e-health services.","PeriodicalId":133558,"journal":{"name":"e-Service Journal","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116006696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Internet-Based Patient-Physician Electronic Communication Applications: Patient Acceptance and Trust","authors":"Richard Klein","doi":"10.2979/ESJ.2007.5.2.27","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2979/ESJ.2007.5.2.27","url":null,"abstract":"Healthcare consumers have increasingly demanded greater convenience and access to providers that is easily facilitated through electronic communications. Providers have resisted use of such a medium, citing concerns with potential escalating workloads, lack of reimbursements, limited diagnostic capability, as well as potential security, privacy, and liability issues (Kassirer, 2000; Neinstein, 2000). Conversely, patient concerns center on privacy and confidentiality (Bernhardt et al., 2002). Moreover, the Internet-based solutions currently being deployed to facilitate patient-physician communications constitute a departure from use of existing personal commercial e-mail accounts, as many patients might have anticipated and/or preferred. Accordingly, the current study seeks to understand how first-time users' attitudes toward Internet-based patient-physician communication applications influence intentions and use. Additionally, this work considers the role of trust with respect to both the technology vendor and healthcare provider. This research conducted an empirical examination of patients' acceptance of an Internet-based patient-physician communication application, surveying 143 first-time users. This work incorporates Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) constructs in conjunction with trust beliefs, both grounded in the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA). Results suggest that behavioral intentions shape use behaviors, perceived usefulness (PU) influences behavioral intentions, and perceived ease of use (PEOU) impacts PU. Additionally, the analysis reveals that patient trust beliefs in both their provider and the Web site vendor shape behavioral intentions, with perceived vendor reputation and PEOU influencing user trust beliefs in the vendor.","PeriodicalId":133558,"journal":{"name":"e-Service Journal","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126051684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
