Patient portals have the potential to support patient empowerment, self-care , and management, but their adoption and use have reported to be limited. Patients’ more active role creates tension, as health professionals need to change their traditional expert role and share control with patients. Professionals may also have other expectations and concerns that influence the acceptance of patient portals supporting patient empowerment. This study explores the health professionals’ expectations influencing their support for a new patient portal for self-management prior to implementation.
Only 13% of the respondents agreed that they have received enough information about the patient portal, and 12% had heard about the aims of the patient portal in their unit. A minority of the respondents believed that good practices will be used in their organization, although most of them believed that there will be a person who is responsible for the implementation, and there is also a lead professional or champion who will encourage others to use the patient portal. In open-question responses, health professionals were concerned that the adoption of the new patient portal and changing the work culture will be burdening, and that learning to use the patient portal is laborious or time demanding. Participating in the development was seen important, and it was hoped that the voice of the personnel, different specialities, and patient groups would be heard. The respondents also requested for more informing, training, and guidance.
In the case of a patient portal, professionals’ attitudes towards patients’ willingness and capability of using a patient portal was identified as essential. Thus, informing and training of the positive influences on patients is also relevant.
A survey study was designed to capture the health care personnel’s expectations about a national patient portal for self-management developed by a Self-Care and Digital Value Services (ODA) project. This survey study focused on health professionals such as nurses, social workers, doctors, physiotherapists, and psychologists, as their work will be influenced by the new patient portal.
Patient empowerment is one of the key goals of eHealth [ 1 ]. Patients are increasingly encouraged to take responsibility for their own health and be active players in self-care, self-management, and decision making [ [2], [3], [4] ]. Widespread patient web portals are often considered to have the potential to support patients with self-managing their health. Patient portals provide various self-management services such as access to personal health information, health metrics recording, educational materials, appointment scheduling, patient-provider communication tools, and self-management diaries [ [5], [6], [7], [8], [9] ].
The objective of the national eHealth and eSocial Strategy 2020 is to support the active role of citizens in promoting their own well-being by improving information management and implementing self-management and online services [ 33 ]. The aim of the strategy is to support the prevention of health problems, self-assessment of the need for services, and independent coping.
