The forms of healthcare service delivery emerges from the interaction between technological progress and institutional changes. Building a healthcare system which enables effective and efficient patient care is a imperative to a sustainable operation of a society. Identifying of a promising medical technologies and diffusing them consists of the basic tasks of a good healthcare system. Inducing of a promising innovation in healthcare and utilization of the innovation requires a deep understanding of healthcare innovation system and delicate governmental intervention to the effective functioning of the system. Therefore, the support for R&D in healthcare field should be given to social and institutional technologies for the better organization of healthcare delivery and consumption system as well as basic and applied medical sciences.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to explain users' wearable healthcare device adoption using performance expectancy, effort expectancy, the hedonic motivation and price value of UTAUT2, and to identify the causal relationship between intention to use wearable healthcare device and innovation resistance formed by perceived risks. Design/methodology/approach The research model proposed in this study is based on UTAUT2(Extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology) and MIR(Model of Innovation Resistance). In specific, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, hedonic motivation and price value of UTAUT2 and innovation resistance formed by perceived risks of MIR are adopted in our research model. To validate the research model, we carry out the analysis of the survey data using Smart PLS 3.0 to test the hypotheses. Findings According to the empirical analysis results, this study confirms that the performance expectancy, effort expectancy, hedonic motivation, and price value have significant effects on the intention to use wearable healthcare devices. It also finds that perceived risk affects innovation resistance and in turn, innovation resistance affects the intention to use wearable healthcare devices.

There has been much efforts to facilitate healthcare innovation and many desirable outcomes were produced in Korea. However, some structural deficiencies were found. They are misalignment of research and development (R&D) subjects with healthcare system, lack of flexibility of current healthcare system to accommodate the radically innovative products, and lack of cooperation among innovation agent. Some suggestions to correct these deficiencies are discussed. The suggestions are as follows: relating Korean healthcare R&D to healthcare system, enhancement of institutional flexibility to allow innovative application of new technology, improvement of the R&D process, and reexamination of the role of academic medical centers.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the intention to utilize u-healthcare services in Korea. Specifically, this study attempted to identify the relationships among the intention to use u-healthcare, consumer's demographic characteristics, and personal information technology level. We conducted telephone interview and collected data from 406 householders 20 years old or older. The results showed significant differences in use intention of u-healthcare service by innovation, gender, and their interaction term. Residence area and average time of internet use had significant effect on the use intention of u-healthcare service. Also, the interaction term between innovation and education level had a significant effect on use intention. Based on the results we concluded that the consumer's characteristics and information technology level had a significant effect on the use intention of u-healthcare service.

인구구조의 고령화와 만성질환 환자 증가로 인한 빠른 의료비 지출 상승에 따라, 디지털 헬스케어 산업에 대한 관심도 높아지고 있다. 디지털 헬스케어는 기존 서비스의 이용자인 환자 외에 일반인까지 수요자 범위를 확장하였으며, 이에 따라 일반인의 디지털 헬스케어 이용현황 및 요구 파악에 대한 연구의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구는 일반인 1,000명을 대상으로 인터넷 건강정보 서비스, 스마트폰 건강관리 애플리케이션, 웨어러블 디바이스, 유헬스 등 4개 부문에서 각각의 서비스 이용 경험, 이용 목적 및 보완점 등을 조사하고, 제공 받고 싶은 헬스케어 서비스 및 콘텐츠 유형, 이용 의사 등을 파악하였다. 본 연구 결과를 통하여 일반인들의 디지털 헬스에 대한 인식과 현재 서비스에 대한 만족도 및 미충족 서비스 요구를 파악함으로써 향후 디지털 헬스케어 서비스 개발에 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the Hawthorne effect on healthcare service process innovation, by investing the difference between checklist items of patients and doctors on direct clinical observations (DCO) and the retrospective clinical review (RCR). Methods: The data set consisted of 30 patients and 30 doctors respondents. T-tests were used to perform a comparative analysis of DCO and RCR items between patients and doctors by pre and post examinations. Results: The results indicate that there was a difference between the non-prior notice checklist items of the patients and doctors, while there was no difference of the post-examination checklist items between the patients and doctors. Conclusion: This study provides useful information and can be applied to the improvement of patient experience through healthcare service process innovation. The results of this study also offer practical insights about how hospitals can motivate providers to participate in healthcare service process for improved quality care by the Hawthorne effect. The study contributes to the existing knowledge of the Hawthorne effect for effective strategies for providing quality care.

헬스케어의 패러다임이 질병치료 중심에서 예방 및 관리 중심으로 변화함에 따라 자신의 건강을 관리하는 트렌드와 더불어 모바일 헬스케어의 성장세가 지속되고 있다. 모바일 헬스케어의 기술은 지속적으로 성장하고 있지만, 소비자의 수용은 다소 부진하다. 이에 모바일 헬스케어와 관련된 다양한 연구가 진행되어 왔지만, 수용자의 특성을 고려한 연구는 부족한 현실이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 모바일 헬스케어의 혁신 확산 요인이 이용의도에 미치는 영향 관계를 파악하고, 이 영향관계에서 혁신 성향의 조절 효과를 검정하였다. 연구 결과 모바일 헬스케어의 상대적 유익성, 적합성, 관찰 가능성, 유용성이 이용의도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 복잡성, 시험 가능성, 유용성이 이용의도에 미치는 영향 관계에서 혁신 성향의 조절 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 혁신 성향이라는 개념을 이용하여 혁신 확산 요인과 이용의도와의 영향 관계에서 주요한 조절 변수임을 확인하였음에 시사점을 갖는다. 또한 모바일 헬스케어의 공급자 입장에서 소비자의 혁신 성향을 고려되어야 하는 요인임을 시사한다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore factors which influence adoption, implementation and continued use of tele-healthcare systems. Methods: Qualitative research was conducted by in-depth interviews with 17 professionals from various fields of organizations involved in developing and implementing tele-healthcare systems. Data were analysed thematically, using a conceptual model of diffusion of innovations. Results: The system users were reacted positively to the 3 attributes out of 9 which decided the adoption of innovation. In addition, it is required to redesign the tele-health care system simpler and easier so that the system users can access to the system much more easily regardless of space and time limitations. From the design stage on an individual level, it is necessary to conduct detailed needs analysis and listen to users who are at the center of innovation diffusion. On an organizational level, it is necessary to actively prepare for possible problems during system implementation, educate the users and build communication channels continuously. Conclusion: This study has identified the factors affecting the innovation of tele-health care systems and contributed to the understanding of the operation of tele-health care systems by the diffusion of innovation theory in community health posts.
