I'm one of the people experiencing absolutely horrible problems with slow function of AmazingCharts. As soon as we upgraded, bang, everything slowed down. It was so sudden, I thought it was a virus. No such luck, network is clean as a whistle. Enter a prescription, refill the med, the little circle icon spins 30 seconds to a minute.
I actually went back to hand-writing prescriptions.
It got to the point where I simply cancelled my schedule. Get our computer consultant in the office, because I'm not seeing patients until this is fixed. I closed a day. I'm a solo doc, so I guess I went on strike against myself. Our computer guy added a lot more RAM, and things got somewhat better, at least where I didn't have to close the office......but it's not staying better. Over several weeks, it's slowing right back down. I don't know why.
The bells and whistles, the Meaningless Use stuff, frankly I don't want any of it. I'd just as soon roll back to an earlier version of AC.
.....actually, can that be done?
I've always found the drug interaction checks to be useless, both with AC and with other EMR's I've used over the years. I'd love to turn off the interaction check on AC if it will help.
How do I do it?
