What are the potential problem areas resulting from improper use of copy-paste or copy forward functionality in an EHR?

  • Improper care or misdiagnosis if copy/paste of previous information is not updated to reflect patient current condition or presenting problems.
  • Inappropriate billing of services if services captured (copy/paste) from other visits did not reflect accurately the services a patient received during an encounter.
  • HIPAA violations if the material that is copied/pasted includes another patient’s information
