510.systemsimplementation.part3.docx IT Systems Implementation: Part 3 University of Phoenix HINF/510: The Systems Life Cycle System Implementation: Part 3 The benefits of computerized provider order entry (CPOE) with clinical decision support functionality to reduce medical errors, improved quality of care, and decreased healthcare costshave been proven yet the actual number of hospitals using this technology remains low because of the many challenges that accompany the implementation of CPOE.Both internal and external factors influence a successful implementation. This paper will examine resource constraints, technology &interoperability limitations, and give an overview of common internal and external factors that influence a successful implementation. Resource Constraints The most often cited barrier to CPOE implementation is the up-front costs of these systems. Birkmeyer et al (2021)estimate that first-year costs could vary from $500,000 to $4.1 million for a 200-bed hospital depending on the nature of the hospital's existing clinical information systems. Subsequent annual maintenance costs were estimated to range from $174,000 to $470,000. Given low or negative operating margins among many hospitals, these costs can represent a significant barrier to adoption of CPOE systems. Technology & Interoperability Limitations While vendor products are improving when it comes to CPOEs, Chief Information Officers (CIO) have questions about the long-term capacity CPOE software brings to the organization. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . .. .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . .
