Influential Factors of Knowledge Sharing of Multinational E-Health Service Based on 24HrKF

AbstractIn order to solve the problem of cross-time and cross-regional medical collaboration and distributed knowledge sharing across patients and medical teams for 24 hours a day in the context of global resource allocation, a new 24HrKF e-health service model is proposed and a key knowledge model of 24HrKF e-health team knowledge sharing is established based on existing research results combined with 24HrKF distributed team characteristics. Finally, the questionnaire data of 338 multinational medical team members are used to verify the impact of key factors on the knowledge sharing of medical teams. The results shows that factors such as information and communication technology, the hospital's cultural characteristics, cross-cultural communication, medical knowledge and skills, and trust all have a significantly positive impact on knowledge sharing among team members especially information and communication technology and medical knowledge and skills. However, the degree of time-span separation across time zones has no significant effect on the knowledge sharing among team members.
