OREM, UT, October 08, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Providers using PatientKeeper CPOE have unanimously declared that they see the EMR overlay as a long-term solution for their facilities. This finding comes from a newly released KLAS report entitled PatientKeeper 2013: A New Take on Inpatient CPOE. As part of the report KLAS interviewed six different health care facilities across the nation to capture their experiences with the technology.

"Many customers originally looked at PatientKeeper CPOE as a stopgap measure only," said Mark Allphin, report author. "Interestingly though, every PatientKeeper CPOE customer we spoke with determined that even if they changed EMRs, they would still likely stay with PatientKeeper. The key is the system's time to proficiency and overall ease of use for physicians."

The report showcases the performance of PatientKeeper CPOE across multiple criteria including usability and overall performance.
