You anticipate that your region will soon move towards an e-health record system.You begin to discuss this with your staff and are disappointed that you receive little positive response from the staff about this possibility.One staff member,in particular,seems to sum it up by saying "e-health?

B)Lack of evidence to support importance of technology.
C)Deficits in education and experience.
D)Lack of organizational support for change.
