QTc interval documentation

Prolonged QTc:
Does your facility implement any forcing functions/constraints or automation/computerization to alert providers to obtain ECG prior to using or while using medications that may prolong QTc? If so, how did you prioritize which medications to implement that on (given the long list)?
Thank you ahead of time.
