(Aspen, Wolcott, Bootman, Cronenwett, 1996)
(Bizzarro, 2009)
Prevents medication prescription errors
Eliminates illegible prescriptions Provides for real-time
communications between doctors, pharmacies and patients
Provides critical drug alerts Patient specific information –
readily available Provides drug pricing information Provides payer coverage and
preferred drug information Complete patient medication
history Reduces fraud and crime Increases health care professional
work efficiency and reduces administrative costs
Speedy refills
Lack of integration with patient record Likelihood that it will be replaced
when EMR is adopted Reduced staff time spent on refill
process Lack of integration with patient
record Initial cost to implement Implementation and extensive
training of staff Educational costs to train staff Need for extensive training time for
all staff and outside vendors Unwillingness of staff compliance
and/or acceptance to change Selection based on criteria and need Development of an integration
system with outside vendors and pharmacies
-potential revenue sources from partnering with device vendors
-objective outcome by E-prescribing vendors
-vendors ties to the pharmaceutical industry
- Will HIPAA regulations limit what can be done with data
-registered nurse -computer skills
-informatics knowledge -informatics skills
-education and training -mentoring for new/seasoned staff -super user in EMR (electronic medical
record) -community liaison for pharmacy and
physician practices -accessibility to staff -continued research and education
