An inevitable limitation is that what we have reported is an association between EHR and accreditation, rather than decisive evidence that use of EHR is a reason for RAC homes to perform better in accreditation. Also, the sample size for de-tailed analysis of risk factors for failing to meet accreditation standards is small. Another limitation of the study is it does not provide information on practice details of the sort obtained from observational studies with small numbers of homes.
This study identified six risk indicators for france telemarketing an RAC home to fail the information system accreditation standard in Australia. While a small number of RAC homes that used paper records failed accreditation standard on information systems, those that used EHR fully complied.
