New research reveals why clinicians bypass your carefully designed protocols—and what you can do about it

Your healthcare organization invested hundreds of millions of dollars in developing and maintaining comprehensive order sets. Yet, clinicians are still scrambling to place additional orders within minutes of using them. Why?

The "Orders Within 5 Minutes" phenomenon

Even experienced providers waste up to 15 hours annually on 5,000+ follow-up orders that should have been included initially, costing $3,000-$5,000 per provider in lost productivity. This is a clear signal that your standardized protocols aren't meeting real-world clinical needs. That's why we dug deeper in our latest study, "Post Order Set Scramble: Why Ordering After an Order Set Matters for Patient Care and Clinical Waste"

What this first-of-its-kind report reveals

Based on analysis of 65+ hospitals, this comprehensive study uncovers:

• The $750K-$2M+ hidden cost of poorly optimized order sets
• Why experienced residents order 240% more follow-up orders than new residents
• 25% of "additional" orders already exist in the original order set—clinicians just can't find them
• The "Great Catch" vs. "Wait, Why Are We Doing That?" framework for interpreting order variations
