HEALTH INFORMATION SYSTEMS 2 Abstract CPOE is usually an abbreviation of Computer-based Physician Order Entry although health professionals can be engaged who are not physicians. CPOE is a part of clinical information systems which enables the care provider of a patient to enter an order for radiology, medical or laboratory test directly into a computer. There are some assumptions made by University Health Care System in its implementation that the typical benefits of utilizing a computerized system will work to their favour. Users of the system create a significant effect to the existence of the same, and it is imperative to regard old information which is supposed to be fed to the system to make it efficient while updating the rest of the data.
HEALTH INFORMATION SYSTEMS 3 Health Information Systems CPOE is a process of electronic entry of medical practitioner directions for the treatment of patients under his or her care. The discussion is about how the implementation process of CPOE at University Health Care System might be assessed and the methods to use, how to respond on the board’s desire on return on investment along with the process to use in developing a plan which will be used in evaluating the value of CPOE. The implementation of CPOE is essential as it will result in effective and quality health services to patients.

A slower phase technique never benefited for the institution, and therefore there is a need to put some more efforts and pain at this stage and make sure there are safety and quality. The strategies that could be implemented are the manual cum CPOE, training and education along with electronic delivery. In manual cum CPOE, at the first phase, we have to utilize the paper and the CPOE simultaneously. The individual who is in charge of the system should monitor both the systems periodically (Chan, Campo, Brulin & Esteve, 2017). Furthermore, the facility can keep the paper prescription record along with the patient records so that they can observe the manner in which it
