Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to show the importance of technological change in the health care system through the implementation of electronic health records. The study was conducted on 206 subjects, employed in Health care centers in the municipality of Pancevo (Pančevo and surrounding villages), who use electronic health records in their work. Medical / visiting nurses / technicians, doc­tors, IT specialists from 19 health stations participated in the survey. The sample was random because it involved only those respondents who have voluntarily agreed. Due to limited space in this paper, we present only the results of 56 physicians (27%) who participated in the study. It can be seen that just over 50% of them find work with the e-record complicated and that it requires much more time than the ordinary medical records. Positive attitudes of doctors are expressed through impressions that work is faster, and it is more clear and readable. Compared to the average grade of satisfaction with e-record of the entire sample, their grade is lower (3.07).
