Harle, Christopher; Cook, Robert; Kinsell, Heidi; Harman, Jeffrey
- Abstract
The article discusses a study that aimed to estimate on a national level, how using a practice-based electronic health record (EHR) relates to primary care physicians (PCPs) opioid analgesic prescribing for patients without cancer, including patients with chronic noncancer pain. The study provides evidence that related EHR use to opioid prescribing in primary care and demonstrates a national level relationship between EHR use and management of a prevalent and complex primary care problem.
