Factors Driving Patient Decisions to Access Electronic Health Records via a Breast Cancer Online Decision Aid linked to the Patient Portal.

Year: 2024

Type: article

Study design: Observational Study

Abstract: user profiles, baseline questionnaires, and interview transcripts, we sought to understand the differences between the groups of patients who opted to download their data via the EHR vs. those who did not. A higher percentage of those who downloaded data (53.8% vs. 42.3%) identified as Hispanic/Latino compared to those who did not download. Thematic analysis suggested that while data security and privacy concerns may lead to hesitation, it is perhaps technological barriers that most significantly limit EHR download.
