I had a local F.P. who is going independent and called me about Amazing Charts. He is between McKesson's Practice Partner (which he is told by his new office manager that this is the best EMR out there) and possibly Amazing Charts. Of course the price difference is astronomical but he asked me what I thought of AC.
Of course I like AC. It does everything I need it to. Sure, it has it's issues and I wish the orders sections was usable but I have some paper orders in my office that suffice. It would be nice if it was on the same level as the other EMRs that have a good integrated PM system but that's not why I got it in the first place. I know it's coming soon so we'll see.
He asked me what I think AC is missing? What I wish it had? I'm looking at it from a surgeon's perspective so the needs are different. Can you guys help me help him make a wise decision and know the weaknesses of AC going into it? Lab interfaces? Terrible superbill abilities? Whatever?
I don't think the PM system is an issue as he's going to keep using his billing service I believe.
