How Far Along Are Medical Offices in Employing an Electronic Ordering System for Medications?

Forty-one percent of surveyed medical offices have a fully implemented system for the electronic ordering of medications, according to a new Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality survey.

According to the survey, 30% of respondents are in the midst of implementing an e-ordering system, while 29% have not implemented such a system.

The survey also found that about half of respondents have had difficulty in the past year with exchanging accurate and complete electronic information with outside medical offices and pharmacies.

Results are based on two surveys conducted in 2007 and 2009 involving 474 medical offices.
