Contextual Factors of Patients' Access to Electronic Health Records in Four European Countries: A Socio-Technical Cross-Country Analysis (Preprint)

The NORDeHEALTH project studies patient-accessible electronic health records (PAEHRs) in Estonia, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. Such country comparisons require an analysis of the sociotechnical context of these services. Although sociotechnical analyses of PAEHR services have been carried out in the past, a framework specifically tailored to in-depth cross-country analysis has not been developed.
