AdvancedMD vs. EMR-Bear

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.

• They provide access to their underlying tables via Open Database Connection (ODBC). This streamlines business intelligence processes greatly.
• The "canned"/"stock" business intelligence tool (Advanced Insight) is very useful.
• Our dedicated customer support representative (Breah Teed) has exceeded our expectations.

• Adding and Deleting provider columns complicated.
• 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.

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.

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.

• We are paying over 5K for absolutely nothing.
• We believe this company does not concern itself with the end-user.
• We identified a large lack of ethics in the organization.
