Physicians\u2019 attitudes toward using and accepting EMR in health care have been analyzed by an integrated model of two classical theories i.e. technology acceptance model (TAM) and diffusion of innovation (DOI). The model was tested using an empirical survey. The final model was tested by structural equation modeling (SEM) and represented by Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS).<\/jats:p><jats:p>The results suggest that the hybrid model explains about 43 percent of the variance of using and accepting of EMRs (R2=0.43). The findings also evidenced that Perceived Usefulness (PU), Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU), Relative Advantage, Compatibility, Complicatedness and Trainability have direct and significant effect on physicians\u2019 attitudes toward using and accepting EMRs. But concerning observeability, significant path coefficient was not reported.<\/jats:p><jats:p>The integrated model supplies purposeful intuition for elucidates and anticipates of physicians\u2019 behaviors in EMRs adoption. The study identified six relevant factors that affect using and applying EMRs that should be subsequently the major concern of health organizations and health policy makers.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Citation: Abdekhoda M, Ahmadi M, Dehnad A, Noruzi A, Gohari M.
