Prescribing errors can spread for a variety of reasons, such as lack of knowledge and skills among pharmacists and poor communication between nurses and doctors. Among medication errors, prescribing errors are one of the leading causes of concern for healthcare professionals across the globe. According to a 2018 report by the General Medical Council (GMC), in the UK, about 9%-15% of hospital patient medication orders report prescribing errors. Although they are rarely fatal, they can adversely affect patients’ health and disease management. In addition to being a threat to a patient's health, prescription errors are a common cause of legal and malpractice claims against physicians and healthcare professionals. Along with offering patients with a complete background medical history while prescribing, e-prescribing systems can further reduce errors by implementing an alert and warning system.
