Trends in the use of computerized physician order entry by health-system affiliated ambulatory clinics in the United States, 2014-2016.
This study examined trends in the use of computerized physical order entry (CPOE) by health-system affiliated ambulatory clinics from 2014-2016 in the United States. A total of 19,109 ambulatory clinics that participated in all 3 years of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society Analytics survey was analyzed. They calculated descriptive statistics to examine overall trends in use, location of order entry, and system-level use of CPOE. The use of CPOE increased from than 9 percentage points from 2015 to 2016, from 58% to 67%. Larger clinics and those affiliated with multi-health hospital systems were more likely to use CPOE.

Health information technology for ambulatory care in health systems.
The adoption and use of health information technology (IT) by health systems in ambulatory care can be an important driver of care quality. In this study, the authors examine recent trends in health IT adoption by health system-affiliated ambulatory clinics in the context of the federal government's Meaningful Use and Promoting Interoperability programs.

Using social knowledge networking technology to enable meaningful use of electronic health record technology in hospitals and health systems.
In this paper, Rangachari (1) reviewed the theoretical literatures on technology use & implementation, and identified a framework for understanding & overcoming unintended adverse consequences of implementing Electronic Health Records; (2) outlined a broad project proposal to test the applicability of the framework in enabling "meaningful use" of Electronic Health Records in a healthcare context; and (3) identified strategies for successful implementation of Electronic Health Records in hospitals & health systems, based on the literature review and application.
