Implementing an electronic health record along with computerised provider order entry and clinical decision support is hard. Integrating these advanced technologies into a complex and rapidly changing healthcare delivery environment is a major task, but the associated cultural, process, and change management obstacles make the task even harder. Furthermore, the challenges and costs often accrue long before any real value of the effort is seen.
