Abstract: We examine how physicians’ perceptions of two computerized provider order entry (CPOE) capabilities, standardisation of care protocols and documentation quality, are associated with their perceptions of turnaround time, medical error, and job demand at three phases of CPOE implementation: pre-go-live, initial use, and continued use. Through a longitudinal study at a large urban hospital, we find standardisation of care protocols is positively associated with turnaround time reduction in all phases but positively associated with job demand increase only in the initial use phase. Standardisation also has a positive association with medical error reduction in the initial use phase, but later this effect becomes fully mediated through turnaround time reduction in the continued use phase. Documentation quality has a positive association with medical error reduction in the initial use phase and this association strengthens in the continued use phase. Our findings provide insights to effectively manage physicians’ response to CPOE implementation.
