Issue orders and discontinued EPR.
Users gave us 104 different reasons for the failure of implementing an EPR in a surgical clinic. We classify the reasons with the issue order model, where the first issue level is for simple and technical issues, the second one for more complex and combined issues, and the third one for political or ideological issues. However, what appears as a first order issue to a manager might be seen as an insurmountable third order issue for a worker and vice versa. The issues are interrelated, and solving one issue might have a substantial influence on other issues. Also, the issues seemed to accumulate and concentrate on points. The analysis helps focus on key problems, with consideration to related issues.
