rninformatics- Thank you for your reply! Currently I am researching best practices and reviewing the literature in regards to CPOE Order set processes. I would definitely be interested in seeing more committee structure and policy. I will send you my e-mail contact information. Thank you for letting me know about the ANIA-CARING listserve, I plan on checking that out! I agree, letting the order set committee come to an end was not beneficial. I have only been in my role since the beginning of the year, and knew nothing of informatics and picked up on this right away! It's been a lot of "clean-up" the past few weeks! I look forward to hearing from you more. Thanks, rnanalystjrm

Hi, Our Hospital is currently in the process of preparing to go LIVE with CPOE. We have Order sets available, about 150. And we just recently contracted with Zynx to add EBP to our current sets and new ones that will come about. About 3 years ago we there was an order set committee that was charged to develop about 25 order sets to meet the main diagnoses of our hospital. The committee met every other week and was Physician led. When finished with the task of these order sets being developed, the committee dissolved. Currently, our practice is, all e-mail based and then once all parties "give the okay" the order set goes to a formal approval committee meeting. These meetings are monthly. It works but it needs to be better, especially since we are implementing Zynx! Please share on how your hospital approves order sets, any information would be helpful! What is your process? Who is involved? What is the time frame for updating current order sets? Thanks!
