Efficiency gains were observed with the implementation of electronic prescribing systems, ranging from significant to moderate gains. These gains included faster prescription processing, streamlined medication reconciliation and refill processes, improved inventory management, and enhanced patient adherence through electronic reminders. However, respondents also acknowledged several challenges, such as technical issues, resistance to change, integration problems, and privacy/security concerns....
