No, ACPM doesn't require the cloud.
Yes, the transfer of appointments will take a lot of work by my staff but it wasn't a deal breaker for me. The fact that AC and PM are integrated (even if incompletely) should in the long run save my staff time. They won't have to keep entering demographic info in two separate systems. They won't have to enter cpt/icd codes when billing because that info flows into PM from AC when I sign my note. This will become even more important with ICD10.
