This study introduces a new methodology for physician order entry (POE) implementation, focusing on stakeholder satisfaction and clinical performance through a feedback-improvement cycle. This approach ensures POE systems meet user needs and institutional goals effectively.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Healthcare Management
  • Socio-technical Systems Analysis

Background:

  • Traditional physician order entry (POE) implementation studies often rely on statistical evaluation of specific variables.
  • A holistic understanding of POE's impact on healthcare institutions is crucial for successful adoption.
  • Existing methods may not fully capture the complex interplay between technology and human factors in healthcare settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel methodology for POE implementation that prioritizes stakeholder objectives and satisfaction.
  • To establish a feedback-improvement cycle for guiding POE implementation processes.
  • To enhance the holistic management of POE's impact within healthcare institutions.

Main Methods:

  • Stakeholders collaboratively define quantitative and qualitative metrics aligned with their objectives.

  • Target value vectors are established for these metrics to represent acceptable implementation outcomes.
  • Evaluation milestones are specified to guide the comparison of pre- and post-POE clinical performance.

    • Main Results:

    • The methodology facilitates a socio-technical feedback-improvement cycle by comparing clinical performance against defined metrics.
    • It enables a more comprehensive assessment of POE implementation beyond simple statistical variable changes.
    • A case study at Sunnybrook and Women's College Health Science Centre illustrates the practical application of this approach.

    Conclusions:

    • The presented methodology offers a structured approach to POE implementation, integrating stakeholder feedback for improved outcomes.
    • It supports a continuous improvement cycle, ensuring POE systems align with clinical performance and user needs.
    • This socio-technical framework is valuable for optimizing POE adoption and maximizing its benefits in healthcare settings.
