User-Centric Evaluation of EMR Implementation with EUCS Framework in a Mid-Tier Indonesian Hospital

Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems have become a fundamental component of hospital information systems, aiming to improve the quality, efficiency, and continuity of patient care. However, the success of EMR implementation depends largely on user satisfaction. This study investigates user satisfaction with the EMR system implemented at Dr. Soetarto (DKT) Hospital, a mid-tier hospital in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The research addresses issues related to usability, data accuracy, and system responsiveness that potentially hinder effective EMR usage. The objective is to evaluate user satisfaction using the End User Computing Satisfaction (EUCS) framework, which consists of five dimensions: content, accuracy, format, ease of use, and timeliness. A quantitative approach was applied through a structured questionnaire distributed to 40 healthcare workers, including medical records staff, nurses, pharmacists, and administrative personnel. Data analysis using Spearman correlation revealed significant positive relationships among all EUCS dimensions, with the strongest association found between format and ease of use. The findings indicate that while users are generally satisfied with the system’s performance, improvements are still needed in timely data retrieval and user interface consistency. This study highlights the critical need for continuous system evaluation and end-user involvement to optimize EMR functionality and healthcare service delivery.
