  • Health Informatics
  • Primary Care Management
  • Health Services Research

Context:

  • Pilot project at Torreblanca Health Center, Spain, evaluating computer-aided prescribing (Receta XXI).
  • Focus on administrative consultations for long-term treatment prescription renewals.
  • Utilized historical data from TASS and current data from Diraya systems.

Purpose:

  • To assess the impact of computer-aided prescribing on administrative burden in primary care.
  • To quantify changes in the number of administrative visits for prescription renewals.
  • To evaluate the efficiency of the Receta XXI system.

Summary:

  • A 60% reduction in monthly administrative visits for prescription renewals was observed after implementing computer-aided prescribing.
