Abstract

Computerized methods for verifying authority to modify clinical orders are provided. The methods may include receiving a clinical order having components associated with a plurality of phases; associating a plurality of the components to form a cross-phase group, the components including components associated with a first phase and a second phase, each of the components including a common attribute; receiving an indication to modify the common attribute of the component associated with the first phase; and determining whether a user from whom the indication is received has the authority to modify the common attribute. If it is determined that the user has the authority, the method may further include modifying all components that are associated in the group. If it is determined that the user does not have the authority, the method may further include not modifying the common attribute. Computerized systems for performing the disclosed methods are also provided.
