Usability Enhancement in Health Information Technology

 

“Usability” is a measure of the efficiency, effectiveness and satisfaction with which a system’s user can operate a tool for its intended use. In Health Information Technology (HIT), usability is a determining characteristic in whether and how systems are used in a meaningful way. Even the most feature-rich systems can be ineffective if they are not usable.
