Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * The study subjects are potential users of the CDS, specifically clinicians with prescribing privileges who practice at one of the health system's (UCHealth) outpatient cardiology or primary care clinics. Because we are observing their prescribing behaviors, we are also evaluating patient characteristics which could influence their prescribing decisions. Exclusion Criteria: * Clinicians who do not practice in cardiology or primary care clinics or do not practice within UCHealth system.
