Wired for CPOE. CIOs are finding that computerized physician order entry starts with a solid infrastructure.
A growing number of hospitals in the United States are implementing CPOE systems, particularly as mandates are passed in some states. In a CPOE roll-out, it is crucial to ensure that a proper infrastructure is in place to support the different types of devices used by clinicians and the mobility some clinicians require. CPOE is often implemented as part of a larger strategy that includes medication administration or large-scale EMR migrations.
