ABSTRACT
The purpose of this paper, acceptance of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) system in the Jordan eHealth sector, is to contribute to develop the quality of hospitals, reduce medical error issues and reduce health costs. However, few researches have addressed the antecedent factors of healthcare professionals’ intentions to use an EHR system. Founded on trust factors integrated with the UTAUT2 model, a theoretical model is proposed to explain the exercise behaviour of healthcare professionals to use an EHR system.
