Medication Error benchmarking - I know, hear me out

For self-reported errors, we most certainly do not benchmark error rates for all of the reasons we are familiar with. But, for those things where we can pull 100% data from the EHR like late doses and early doses, is there a source for benchmarking this data? Thanks in advance.
