Authentication of an Implemented Standing Order<br />
Standing orders must be “authenticated by the practitioner responsible for the care<br />
of the patient,” per CMS. This can be a physician, nurse practitioner, midwife, or<br />
physician assistant. How sites choose to authenticate may vary, but the recommended<br />
process is to ensure the necessary documentation is in the nurse’s note and requests<br />
an additional signature by the ordering provider.<br />
