Hi Chris,

I agree the letter writer certainly could be improved. It is not really high on my priority list, but certainly would be nice to have.

My biggest concerns for Amazing Charts for the future just involve the basics, speed and reliability. We host Amazing Charts locally, and I certainly would like to continue to be able to do so.

Currently my biggest annoyances involve electronic prescribing of controlled substances. First, having to check the Maryland prescription drug monitoring program website before writing controlled prescriptions is time consuming. I understand there is a possibility that this might be able to be integrated into Amazing Charts, this would be wonderful. I believe Maryland has to approve this first, but if/when this is possible it would be a huge upgrade.

Secondly, I have just started electronic prescribing of controlled substances. It seems very awkward to have to do this through New Crop and when done through New Crop it does not appear to be recorded in Amazing Charts. It takes a separate step to do this.

Anything that could integrate EPCS into Amazing Charts, and remove some of the additional clicks, would be most helpful.

Over all, though, I suspect that you and the other developers have a largely thankless job, having to keep up with requirements and hearing nothing but complaints from users. I would like to thank you for all of your efforts, and say that, overall, you have done a great job!
