    Chose Veradigm Practice Management
    Allscripts Practice Management is better than Athena because it does not come as a service but is the software only;

    I think [eMDs Plus (formerly McKesson)] would do better with people who are familiar with computers. It isn't terribly intuitive so there's that but also these products don't provide the kind of training that would assist novice computer users. But, other than that, it's a good, solid product that provides everything a practice would need.

    Although the EHR software industry is still developing, Allscripts has proven to be better than most.

    • Some of the "canned" reports are wrong. We have reported issues to Allscripts multiple times and they never were interested in fixing the problem.
    • The work and total RVU values that are assigned to each CPT code don't have a reference for the year so we have to keep changing them every year and overwrite the old ones.
    • There is no option to load facility and non-facility values for total RVUs.

    Moving away from paper reports is a little hard at first like ripping off a bandaid, but once you're fully integrated, it's just so much easier to see all your work over time and access reports, schedules, and all pertinent employment information for each patient. Not having to deal with paper files just changes the office completely.

    I'm actually not sure if we call Allscripts support or our own support team with superusers. There never seems to be a problem that can't be fixed right away. The biggest problem you can have is when you start a report when the patient hasn't been checked in. I know how to fix it myself now, but it takes a few minutes with support when you need them to back it out.

    Aprima is a much newer application with features the 1st generation of EHRs did not have. But, I do not necessarily find it easier to use. It has a lot of "moving parts" so to speak and isn't really intuitive. I've used others than I found easier to learn and use.

    Centricity is much more difficult to get support for in my experience.

    • I am only a user but it's easy to assume that this program is very expensive.
    • Access to reports across all providers is game-changing.
    • Helping the patient navigate care by seeing not just reports but scheduled visits is also a major plus.
