Computerized physician order entry (CPOE) is a technology that allows physicians to enter orders, medications, or procedures directly into the computer instead of handwriting them. [1] The system transmits the order to the appropriate department or individual so the order can be carried out. [2]
See CPOE Definition for more information.
