title: Advancing the ePrescribing research.
abstract: In 2006 CMS and AHRQ funded the National Resource Center for Health IT (NRC) to evaluate the findings from the 5 CMS ePrescribing (eRx) pilots. During this evaluation, the NRC identified research areas from: 1) questions left unanswered by the pilot contractors, 2) gaps in knowledge identified by the evaluation team and, 3) areas requiring additional industry experience. The research areas encompass standards, implementation considerations and outcomes such as ADEs, pharmacy workflow and physician adoption.
