This is a review for Carl V. Vartian, MD, Hardeep Singh, MD, Elise Russo and Dean Sittig’s Development and Field Testing of a Self-Assessment Guide for Computer-Based Provider Order Entry. [1]

Background

While newly-available computer-based physician order entry (CPOE) can provide many benefits for the medical organizations and providers that use them, there are certain patient safety risks that might be presented after a CPOE implementation. With the Meaningful Use incentive promoting EHR and CPOE adoption in both the inpatient and outpatient settings, the accelerated implementations have increased reports of negative effects of these systems’ use. As a result of these negative reports, there has been a push to create a method of assessing CPOE-specific risks for healthcare organizations.
