Ten years of research mined for security and privacy concerns of health information system adoption and acceptance: coherent taxonomy, motivations and open challenges

Abstract

This survey provides a taxonomy of the privacy and security factors influencing the acceptance of health information systems (HIS) and classifies these factors into motivation and limitations of HIS acceptance. We implemented a focused search for each article on (1) HIS (2) acceptance or adoption (3) privacy or security, in six main databases. Results: The final set included 65 articles. Most of the articles (50.76%; 33/65) are empirical studies that refer to the user perspective about privacy and security of HIS and adopt a specific theory of technology acceptance model. The next largest portion of articles (36.92%; 24/65) is reviews and surveys articles, which indicate to explain the existing HIS for a certain system, privacy, and security to provide a general review. The smallest and last section of the work (12.30%; 8/65) refers to proposals for frameworks or models. This review highlights the frequent of privacy and security factors influencing the acceptance and adoption of HIS.
