Epic vs. RXNT

Epic is very good on the medical side and continues improving mental health and dental care. Having integrated telehealth via Zoom was a game-changer. During COVID, it was vital to have telehealth options and to ensure it was completely HIPAA Compliant and easy to document inside their health record.

I believe it is best suited for organizations that wish to utilize all of the available tools within the system. I do not believe it is well suited for organizations that lack a deep understanding of the revenue cycle process or individuals who try to cut corners in managing accounts receivables. It works extraordinarily well in situations where one will take the time to set up all the available tools, test them, and make them part of their workflow.

• Updated technology. Epic consistently stays up to date and advances their technology and features.
• Shortcuts, templates, and smart phrases help to make using the software easier and faster with accuracy.
• Intuitive user interface. Epic has put a lot of thought into the design and function of the software and has ensured that it is user friendly.

Incentivized

• Patient portal, communications with patients and an easy to use platform for communciation.
• Auto posting features and claim scrubbing tools.
• Claim management and the ability to easily work to correct claims errors, rejections, and denials.
• Easy customizable reporting tools for administrative analysis on our perfromance.

Incentivized

• Difficult to find what you need.
• Almost impossible to correct mistakes.
• Multiple screens must be navigated to get to what you want.

Incentivized

• The ads are very annoying and distracting. I would like to see these removed.
• Sometimes when using the prescribing feature, the list of meds is unscrollable. This is likely a glitch that could be fixed.
• Same thing after choosing a pharmacy. The preview page of Rx is unscrollable, making it impossible to see all of them. Would like to see this fixed as well.
• Would like to be able to add more templates under the macros but it is not clear how to do this.

It is beyond measure the best EHR on the market.

This is exactly what we needed and I can’t think of of another system that can give us better service and customer support for a better price.

My organization has been using the Epic platform for 10 years and counting! Epic has continuously improved and updated the system to align with current best practices and meet the needs of members and their patients. As an FQHC, we provide medical, dental, and mental health services, and it is essential to have access to all the patients' health information in one place. Integrating Care Everywhere and Telehealth options embedded directly in the EHR has greatly improved our ability to take the best care of each patient who walks through our doors.

Having used other systems, there are still items I would like to see added to this platform. Additional forms, understanding of how to load those forms into the system. Ability for clients to access those forms. And the ability to upload forms that are coming in externally. This would be helpful.

We have not had any issues being able to connect.

No issues at all. We could not be happier with this system

A dedicated support staff for each module/area is provided by Epic. This is beneficial for points of contact, however, not all support staff are created equal, and there seems to be high turnover in these roles(staff seems to turn over every 1-2 years). This can make it challenging for continuity and quick support resolution as new staff are not as familiar with organization-specific needs, environments, and/or questions.

Super quick response to any questions I have had

Well-vetted lesson plans that teach you what you need to know for success.

While not as effective as in-person training, it is still adequate.

Gabrielle and all the rest of our trainers were great!

Epic has a regimented implementation process that ensures a successful go-live.

Incentivized

It was fantastic! The training was easy and everyone was very helpful and knowledgeable throughout the whole process

Epic has more features and seems to be used by most hospital systems, which means information can be shared between systems. It is not compatible with Cerner, McKesson, or any other of the less commonly used products and we cannot view information from such facilities. I believe Epic has the most features. It automatically saves entries, unlike Quadrimed, for example, which does not save and if you accidentally get logged out you lose your information.

RXNT offers better quality and more customization for the cost. Valant was very expensive regardless if you wanted a few features or the entire EHR. eClinical Works is easy to duplicate records but then it can take a while to update with current information. And their updated version...you might need a magnifying glass especially if you are using on a laptop. I love the larger font and overall appeal of RXNT much better

Incentivized

It fits our needs perfectly

Incentivized

• Improved Customer Satisfaction: After the initial implementation phase, I have seen increases in patient satisfaction. This is due to the increased transparency regarding their care as well as an increase in paid claims.
• Increased Revenue: In some cases I have seen Medicare denial rates drop from high 80's and 90's down to single digits. I have seen incredible jumps in the time payment is received from an approved claim.

Incentivized

• I've only been using for 2 mo so I can't answer this quite yet.
• I do know that the cost is much more affordable and an excellent value for the cost.
• I am a single provider practice so I have had to learn the admin side and the provider side which has been a challenge at times.
