Electronic health records (EHR) are becoming more common because of the federal EHR incentive programme, which is also promoting electronic health information exchange (HIE). To determine whether consumers' attitudes toward EHR and HIE are associated with experience with doctors using EHR, a nationwide random-digit-dial survey was conducted in December 2011. Of 1603 eligible people contacted, 1000 (63%) participated. Most believed EHR and HIE would improve healthcare quality (66% and 79%, respectively). Respondents whose doctor had an EHR were more likely to believe that these technologies would improve quality (for EHR, OR 2.3; for HIE, OR 1.7). However, experience with physicians using EHR was not associated with privacy concerns. Consumers whose physicians use EHR were more likely to believe that EHR and HIE will improve healthcare when compared to others. However, experience with a physician using an EHR had no relationship with privacy concerns.
电子健康记录 (EHR) 由于联邦电子健康记录激励计划而变得越来越普遍，该计划也在促进电子健康信息交换 (HIE)。为了确定消费者对 EHR 和 HIE 的态度是否与他们与使用 EHR 的医生的经历有关，于 2011 年 12 月进行了一项全国范围内的随机数字拨号调查。在联系的 1603 名合格参与者中，有 1000 人（63%）参与了调查。大多数人认为 EHR 和 HIE 将提高医疗保健质量（分别为 66%和 79%）。认为这些技术将提高质量的受访者（EHR 为 2.3；HIE 为 1.7），其医生拥有 EHR 的可能性更大。然而，使用 EHR 的医生的经验与隐私问题无关。与其他医生相比，医生使用 EHR 的消费者更有可能认为 EHR 和 HIE 将改善医疗保健。然而，使用 EHR 的医生的经验与隐私问题没有关系。
