      Add to the section  'Configuration Options and the CDS Service' the following sentences:

      "It is critical for the practicing clinicians using the EHR to be consulted with/actively involved in any configuration decisions made related to the CDS service and what alerts to present. This is because the IT implementers at the site be unlikely to have the clinical knowledge to evaluate the potential burdens of “over alerting” vs. the risks of missing important safety messages. Clinicians need to carefully evaluate the potential burdens vs. risks and make a careful decision on CDS configuration."

    Description

      Suggest we add a comment here that is critical for the practicing clinicians using the EHR be consulted with/actively involved in any configuration decisions made related to the CDS service and what alerts to present. The IT implementers at the site be unlikely to have the clinical knowledge to evaluate the potential burdens of “over alerting” vs. the risks of missing important safety messages. Clinicians need to carefully evaluate the potential burdens vs. risks and make a careful decision on CDS configuration.

      Existing Wording:

      Using configuration options sent from the EHR client to the service provides a way for the client to have a say in how apparent duplication is handled.
