Abstract
Goal: This study aimed to understand prescribing providers' perceptions of electronic health record (EHR) effectiveness in enabling them to identify and prevent opioid misuse and addiction.
Methods: We used a cross-sectional survey designed and administered by KLAS Research to examine healthcare providers' perceptions of their experiences with EHR systems. Univariate analysis and mixed-effects logistic regression analysis with organization-level random effects were performed.
Principal findings: A total of 17,790 prescribing providers responded to the survey question related to this article's primary outcome about opioid misuse prevention. Overall, 34% of respondents believed EHRs helped prevent opioid misuse and addiction. Advanced practice providers were more likely than attending physicians and trainees to believe EHRs were effective in reducing opioid misuse, as were providers with fewer than 5 years of experience.
Practical applications: Understanding providers' perceptions of EHR effectiveness is critical as the health outcome of reducing opioid misuse depends upon their willingness to adopt and apply new technology to their standardized routines. Healthcare managers can enhance providers' use of EHRs to facilitate the prevention of opioid misuse with ongoing training related to advanced EHR system features.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
