NCC MERP International Clinical and safety methodology

NCC MERP medication error severity index

The severity scale for medication errors, from a circumstance with capacity to cause error through to a death. Severity tiering is also what prevents interaction alerting from becoming alert fatigue.

Set by National Coordinating Council for Medication Error Reporting and Prevention

What we claim, precisely

The platform holds this standard down to the measurable element, with an owner, a control and live-linked evidence for each one, and reports readiness and gaps. It does not assert that a facility is compliant. A person signs that off.

Preparing for NCC MERP

Open the sandbox and look at the readiness view, or ask us to walk it against your own standard set.
