The implementation of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) has become an important element in improving healthcare service quality, efficiency, and patient safety in hospitals. However, the benefits of EMR depend not only on system availability but also on the quality of the information provided and how actively the system is used by healthcare professionals. This study aims to analyze the influence of electronic medical record content and perceived ease of use on the net benefits of EMR, with actual system use acting as an intervening variable. The research applied a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design conducted at RSM Hospital. The population consisted of all general practitioners and specialist doctors working at the hospital, totaling 51 respondents, and the study used a total sampling technique. Data were collected through structured questionnaires measured using a Likert scale and analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) method. The results show that EMR content and perceived ease of use significantly influence the net benefits of EMR. Both variables also significantly affect the actual use of the system, while actual use significantly influences the benefits obtained. Furthermore, actual use mediates the relationship between EMR content, ease of use, and net benefits, indicating that better information quality and usability can encourage greater system utilization and maximize the advantages of EMR implementation.

Low parental literacy regarding nutrition, parenting, and lack of utilization of Posyandu services as well as low father participation are among the factors contributing to the continued existence of malnutrition and stunting risks at the Flamboyan 3-4 Ulu Posyandu. This study aims to identify the root causes of low parental literacy, map its impact on the condition of toddlers, and evaluate two alternative policies to improve the quality of parenting education. This study uses a mixed method with a predominance of descriptive qualitative data. Data were collected through interviews, observations, questionnaires, and anthropometric data. Policy analysis was conducted using the six evaluation criteria of William Dunn (1999), namely effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, fairness, responsiveness, and accuracy. The results of the study show that of the 13 children examined in August-September, there were 3 children whose weight and height were not appropriate for their age. The three main factors causing this problem were limited knowledge about nutrition and feeding, low understanding of child growth and development, and minimal use of posyandu services, including the involvement of fathers. The impact of this condition is evident in several toddlers with Z-scores for weight-for-age and height-for-age below the standard. Two policy alternatives were evaluated: the Healthy Family Room Program (RKS) and the 1000 HPK Home-to-Home Counseling Program. The evaluation results show that the RKS Program received the highest score with an average of 3.3, making it more feasible to implement because it is more effective, sufficiently efficient, and more responsive to family needs.
