Computerized physician order entry (CPOE) is a technology that allows physicians to enter orders, medications, or procedures directly into the computer instead of handwriting them. [1] The system transmits the order to the appropriate department or individual so the order can be carried out. [2]

System Configuration

The system should be configured correctly for ease of use and security.

  • Passwords should be secure yet easy to remember. [3]
  • Co-signatures allows for multiple levels of function and security (eg, an RN can place an order but only with a signature from a physician)
  • Time-out settings prevent accidental unauthorized access.
  • Clinical staff are sometimes reluctant to switch from paper to electronics. Active encouragement, additional training, and a deadline to fully integrate into CPOE increases compliance.
