Allscripts Professional EHR vs CareLogic

Likelihood to Recommend

Some of the key questions include functionality of the EHR in today's electronic marketplace. Also customer support ratings are important due to many ongoing difficulties previously experienced with older EHRs. Allscripts is well suited to the outpatient setting where many preformed templates provide a comprehensive overview of patients. Additionally, Allscripts' link with the imaging portal PACS is second to none.

CareLogic is well suited for large organizations who have the financial means to employ their own IT and reporting staff. It is very capable of handling a number of different programs within an agency and is usually very quick, especially when considering the amount of data their servers hold. Smaller organizations and independent practitioners may find it to be too cost-prohibitive

CareLogic is good at keeping summaries of clients on each page. At one glance, I'm able to see most of the necessary information for a client such as their picture, insurance, plan, and links to relevant notes.
I've never tried the CareLogic mobile application, however, if it is anything as convenient as CareLogic being hosted in the cloud then it would be a great asset. Being that CareLogic is hosted in the cloud I can access it from a few select devices approved by the system.

Cons

Allscripts could use improvement with stability. Once in awhile, the software would freeze upon loading images saved from radiology or lab reports. It frequently had trouble with login credentials.
Improve the clarity of scanned images in patient's EHR.
Conversability with other platforms, like Cerner, Epic, and McKesson.
Improve the way InterQual loads review platform as well as emailing hospital case manager feature.

Not the best MAR for nursing staff to administer medications.
Information does not spill over or connect very easily from different areas of the platform.

CareLogic 3.0

Based on 1 answer

The rating of "3" represents CareLogic's quick loading of pages, however, the reports are super slow and there is no progress bar or notification to let you know if a report is running or not. I've let a report run for an hour before only to find out that the interface never registered my click to run the report.

Alternatives Considered

It was already in use when I was hired. I have mostly figured it out just messing around with it in my earlier spare time.

CareLogic is extremely user friendly and intuitive. It also has a very nice Windows-based user interface which is pleasant to look at and easy to read.
