摘要

区块链技术(BCT)在不同背景下具有跨行业的多种优势，但在印度的医疗保健行业，有限的组织采用了这种颠覆性的创新技术。在印度医疗保健行业推进区块链采用(BCA)决定因素的理解的研究是有限的。因此，该研究旨在确定印度医疗保健部门的BCA决定因素。在此基础上，研究了BCA对组织绩效的影响。设计/方法/方法本研究利用技术、组织和环境(TOE)框架来调查印度医疗保健部门BCA的决定因素。数据收集使用七点李克特七点从“非常同意”到“非常不同意”从272名受访者在印度的医疗保健行业工作。利用结构方程模型研究了框架内的关系。研究结果表明，高层管理支持、组织规模、组织准备程度、竞争压力和政府支持对医疗保健行业BCA有积极影响。另一方面，兼容性、安全性和隐私问题不影响BCA。结果强调并验证了b区块链在改善医疗保健部门OP方面的重要性。此外，结果表明，非技术因素是至关重要的，以改善医疗保健部门内的BCA。组织应投资于员工培训和发展，以确保其员工拥有有效管理BCT所需的知识和技能。研究局限性/意义该模型是为印度医疗保健部门的BCA开发的;然而，该模型适用于具有相同商业环境的其他国家。因此，该模型可以在不同的国家进一步检验，以概括研究结果。实际意义本研究对影响医疗保健行业BCA和OP的因素提供了有价值的见解。本研究的结果可用于为政策决策提供信息，并指导从业人员在医疗保健组织中促进和促进BCT的使用。原创性/价值据作者所知，本研究是同类研究中第一个在医疗保健部门内检查BCA中的TOE框架及其对OP的影响。

Determinants of blockchain adoption and organizational performance in the healthcare sector in India

PurposeBlockchain technology (BCT) has multiple benefits across industries in varied contexts, but limited organizations have adopted such disruptive innovative technologies in the healthcare industry in India. The research on advancing the understanding of blockchain adoption (BCA) determinants in India's healthcare industry is limited. Thus, the study aims to identify the BCA determinants in the healthcare sector in India. Further, the impact of BCA was examined on organizational performance (OP).Design/methodology/approachThe study utilizes Technology, Organization, and Environment (TOE) framework to investigate the determinants of BCA in the healthcare sector in India. The data were gathered using a seven-point Likert seven-point ranging from “strongly agree” to “strongly disagree” from 272 respondents working in the healthcare industry in India. The relationship within the framework was investigated using structural equation modeling.FindingsThe results demonstrate the positive impact of top management support, organizational size, organizational readiness, competitive pressure and government support on BCA in the healthcare sector. On the other hand, compatibility, security and privacy issues do not affect BCA. The results emphasize and validate blockchain’s importance in improving OP in the healthcare sector. Further, the results indicate that non-technological factors are paramount to improving BCA within the healthcare sector. Organizations should invest in employee training and development to ensure their staff have the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively manage BCT.Research limitations/implicationsThe model was developed for BCA in the healthcare sector in the Indian context; however, the model applies to other countries with the same business environment. Hence, the model can be further examined in diverse countries to generalize the findings.Practical implicationsThe study offers valuable insights into the factors that influence BCA and OP in the healthcare sector. The results of this research can be used to inform policy decisions and guide practitioners toward promoting and facilitating the use of BCT in healthcare organizations.Originality/valueTo the best of the author’s knowledge, the present study is the first of its kind to examine the TOE framework in BCA within the healthcare sector and its implications on OP.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
