Systems and methods for clinical task separation in electronic health record applications
A server EHR executing on a server computing device is in communication with a client EHR executing on a first client computing device, and receives a prescription authorization from the client EHR, the prescription authorization based on input received from an authorized clinician user of the client EHR during performance of a clinical subtask of a prescription ordering task. The server EHR assigns a non-clinical subtask of the prescription ordering task to a non-clinician user operating a client application executing on a second client computing device. The non-clinician user provides input to the client application that pertains to completion of the non-clinical subtask. The client application transmits prescription ordering data to the server EHR, whereupon the server EHR outputs a prescription order to a second server computing device associated with a pharmacy indicated in the prescription ordering data.
