Our current system for the past 6 years has been working very well for us. We would never switch if we did not have to. Are there many practices that combine their current workflow, either manual or some sort of electronic system with Amazing Charts, just to meet MU criteria?
Example would be to log in Demographics and during the visit use AC for Problem List, Vitals, ERx, and any other MU items. Our existing system to document the visit. This may require some duplicate entry but seems doable and quicker for the Dr. in the room with a patient. Since our current system stores all results in a database, such as labs, diagnostic studies, problem list, other consultant reports, and not as attachments, this allows selecting a date range when writing a patient note and prints out all of their results with a letter.
Any input would be appreciated since we are trying to incorporate AC the best we can and still be productive and patient centered.
