Risk as a Moderator on the Impact of EMR Systems on Clinical Process Outcomes
نویسنده
چکیده
Electronic medical records have the potential to reduce medical errors and improve clinical outcomes in hospitals. To date, studies measuring the impact of EMR systems on performance outcomes have shown mixed results. A number of clinical studies have called for deeper exploration into the factors that may play a role in determining the success or failure of EMR systems. This study explores the effect of risk as a moderator of the relationship between EMR system use and performance outcomes. Results show that the impact of EMR systems on performance outcomes may be higher when the risk of the treatment being prescribed is higher. The study uses the Dorenfest database from HIMSS and quality measures report to CMS as part of the Hospital Compare Program.
