title: Clinical Tech Trends 2010. Tech Trend: CPOE.
abstract: THE LANDSCAPE: It's not just the push to obtain federal funding under the ARRA-HITECH legislation that's driving a burst of CPOE implementation of late; it's the realization on the part of CIOs and other organizational leaders that CPOE really is foundational for progress in improving care quality and efficiency.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The image of CPOE is rapidly being transformed. Clinician leaders and CIOs see the technology as a vital tool in eliminating unnecessary and problematic variation in care, and in spurring data analysis for quality and patient safety improvement going forward. The challenge, as many hundreds of hospitals move towards CPOE in order to qualify for meaningful use under ARRA-HITECH: can they all implement successfully?
