As far as Excel, Leslie's is quite good. Also, consider that the sheet you make may be with you a while, and there are many people out there that are Excel experts, possibly even setting it up where data such as HbA1C's can be averaged easily.
Jon,
I used to talk about this all the time, but just gave up. I wish that AC opened to a problem list so you could see everything about the patient at once. Meds, PMH (not all the notes), PROBLEMS, etc. Even the last impression and plan. I don't know how many times I have told parents their child has a murmur we need to check only to find out he or she has pulmonary stenosis. Or the child is a little reserved, and I wonder about Asperger's, and he already has it.
I also think it would be cool if you could see the impression and plan after the MA charts and possibly click on a tab to open a new impression and plan field.
BUT, we must remember that this is the least expensive (except for the free ones) EMR there is.
