Exploring the Impact of In Basket Metrics on the Adoption of a New Electronic Health Record System Among Specialists in a Tertiary Hospital in Alberta: Descriptive Study.

We observed a range of patterns with no consistent direction. There does not seem to be evidence of a "learning curve," which would have shown a consistent reduction in time spent on the system over time due to familiarity and experience. While this study does not show how the included metrics could be used as predictors of providers' satisfaction or feelings of burnout, the use trends could be used to start discussions about future Canadian studies needed in this area.
