Interventions

Best practice alert for the notification of patient HFrEF and recommended evidence-based therapies (NO drugs are being administered in this trial)other

Providers will receive a best practice alert for each of their eligible patients upon opening of the order entry screen in the patient's medical record. The alert will inform the provider to the presence of HFrEF and of the patient's current left ventricular ejection fraction and current evidence-based medications for HFrEF. It will also provide access to an order set with recommended evidence-based HFrEF therapies as well as a link to the best available guideline-recommended information regarding the treatment of heart failure.
