George,

Sorry, no way it is 10 cents per page. I scanned in over 1,000 patients. Cost? About $400. That is like all those EMR companies that tried to tell me that they would save me $1.00 per chart to file. Right. It took my receptionist about 15 seconds to file a chart. Not exactly $1.00. People like to talk about "time is money," but they were overestimate how much money.

George, Does your wife use AmazingCharts?
