JTU,
I just recently stopped using the scheduler in my PM program and changed over to the one in AC. There were several trade-offs. Like you, I find it a little cumbersome to have to go back to the PM program to print off the superbills but I figure this cancels out the time my staff used to spend pulling the day's charts from the paper file rack. I miss not being able to look at the AC schedule and see if there is a balance due. I miss not being able to look at the scheduler and see what the copay is. I miss not having another space to leave additional comments such as "confirmed appointment". But, since my PM program charges by the station, I was not able to put the schedule on every computer. Using the scheduler in AC I can now see the schedule while in the exam rooms, I can know when a patient's next appointment is, I can know how many DNKAs they might have had, I can find when the next Bone Density Scan run will be, etc. So, for the most part, I prefer using AC. I am hopeful many of these issues will be addressed when the PM side of AC is released.
