Adoption *Ans*✨refers to the state of EHR where every
intended user is using the basic functionality of the

,configuration may be desired. Adoption may also
require retraining, (further) redesign of workflows
and processes, reinforcement (of changes), and even
a system of rewards. Unfortunately, some users may
never reach full adoption, in which case counseling,
workarounds, sanctions, terminating employment, or
other strategies may be necessary to achieve the results
needed by all.
