AdvancedPM, by AdvancedMD vs. PatientPop

It would be well suited for an initial user. If you are starting a practice and have nothing in place, it might be great. However, if you are a current EMR user of a different platform and have more than a hundred patients; don’t waste your time. This is a hands-off company that, in my opinion, will do nothing to support your efforts. We have a practice of 11,000 patients and would have had to hire 2 FTE’s to print all the patient data and upload it individually.

Great for getting POTENTIAL new patients, but there is definitely room for improvement. As an out-of-network office, it has proven to be difficult to get these new patients to commit to an appointment, many will schedule and then call the day before and cancel once they find out we do not take their insurance.

• Would have loved to have one point of contact at all times and have that person answer on the third ring (see, this is me really reaching--because as far as my job functions were concerned, the product was absolutely fantastic. I have no complaints).
• Working electronic insurance error reports in the system was a nightmare.

• Better tracking of new clients via the dashboard without using the whisper as we take PatientPop phone calls.

Overall, I think ADP AdvancedMD is very user friendly and constantly improves as new releases come out.

I've only reached out a couple of times and after being bounced around a few times I simply asked for our internal team to look into the particular question I had. I believe they had some turnover at the time but my experience wasn't great.

The sales rep. disappears and the admin (onboarding) team will provide a list of things THEY need. Then you'll need to chase them down to see if they were received. Even if they were it could be weeks before next steps are taken. We gave them the benefit of the doubt but ultimately, they could pass muster. There is limited follow-through and absolutely no significant SEO or reputation management. Our website had fewer hits in two years than most get in a month. Again, we assumed it was on our side so we sought answers. The only person who ever answered a call or an email was the selling Rep. And then her response was to get someone to "reach out" to us. We can't even leave easily. I've been trying to exit this program for more than nine month and can't get a call back or returned email from anyone. When you do get a live person it's the usual," I'll have to get one of our senior members to call you back." When I explain that never happens they tell us there is no one who can talk right now

I have been through implementation of ADP AdvancedMD at other companies and it went smoothly

ADP AMD is much easier to learn and navigate than most all of the systems I have worked with, including Greenway and Centricity. The only thing I liked better in Centricity was the ability to run more customized reports, but overall, I would choose AMD any day over those two.

Be careful with their aggressive sales tactics. Take the time you need, do not rush into such decisions for your business. There are many many other companies out there

• Our success rep, Sarah, has been helpful in directing us toward a successful online marketing strategies
