WebPT Enterprise packages are custom-made based on clinic needs, and prices vary accordingly.
Some of the areas seem like they are more hospital based, so maybe having different divisions of the software, being only home care or hospice, or only hospital might make it even more individualized. Overall, we do appreciate simplicity, but we do have to have a very clear picture of our skill that we are seeing a patient for. If there is not very specific information other than basic check boxes, we risk insurance denial. So at this time we rely on writing very detailed notes in order to avoid this
Relatively easy to use. Able to enter your own information as needed. It could auto populate more common statements to make it faster. Gave it a 7/10 because of the frequency of outages. Has improved recently. However, there are times when I am unable to access my notes and schedule all day. That causes unnecessary disruption in my workplace. Software like this should be consistently reliable.
Ability to store patient information, PMH, and electronic documents in a concise manner and the ability to add additional notes and descriptions to the account.
Scheduler is easy to manage - schedule patients, add providers, move the order of providers, quick links for patient (i.e. update status like check-in / no-show / cancel, make a payment, get to account, etc), color code visits, track # of visits per provider for each date of service.
For what I need to do in the accounting department, I like how I can print out the daily schedule with ease, the color coded dots next to the patient name to indicate whether a note has been started, in progress, or completed, print out payment logs.
Adding insurances and medical providers is easy and stress-free.
Our PS likes that they can fax reports from WebPT to doctors and adjusters with ease (aside from the occasional glitches).
It would be nice if there were some sort of alert when an incoming fax has arrived. Sort of like a ding or a bell notification at the top similar to an email, rather than having to go check every so often. We appreciate being very responsive.
If we were able to customize every single section for each type of visit, that would be very helpful as we have noticed that we would like more details in some places and less in others.
During initial training, going through each type of visit together from start to finish would be helpful. Addressing every single scenario that might happen, such as recerts or discharges. I think doing several of those from start to finish together would be beneficial as repetition is key.
I like that it carries forward information from previous notes. I also wonder, though, if there could be a more comprehensive "archive" of activities we had done in the past rather than only copying and paste from the previous note.
I like seeing a few comparisons of my outcome measures--when writing a progress note, I don't just want to see the last measure. Seeing the last 3-4 values from the test would have been helpful to really see different trends.
Fewer click boxes in the evals would be helpful to keep things moving along at some points. I appreciate the variety offered, but also struggle with how much clicking there is to get through.
In my opinion, the service we received for the price we paid was not justified: I spent as much time fixing WebPT's errors as I did trying to do my own job. In my experience, there are accounts that they wrote off without telling us rather than figuring out how to resubmit corrected claims, we were unable to send them paper insurance checks for over a year despite multiple attempts to connect with customer service, and WebPT began crashing regularly within the last month of using it.
Alora Home Health Software is overall the best and the most user-friendly software I have used in a really long time. Everything is just a simple click or touch of a button. The best part is if I don't know what to click I can always call the Alora Home Health Software customer service team, and with a smile they will walk you through what to click and enter in to help keep your company up and running.
It is very easy train people on and make each not the way you would like it. My first time using it I only needed one time walking through it. The software is self explanatory and easy to find what you need in a note
It is always available to me when needed thankfully, I hadn’t had a moment or a time when I was unable to access it when needed. My practice's power went out once which was the only incident when it was unavailable to everyone on the team but again, it had nothing to do with the availability offered by this product.
Pages often load slowly. Our iMacs are highly reliable and we are connected to the highest speed Comcast business internet. We also connected each iMac via Cat 9 cable during COVID-19 pandemic to speed telelhealth appointments. Zoom does integrate very well with WebPT for telehealth. Their own modules do not integrate well with each other. For example, patients receive separate emails for patient intake and clinical outcomes. If confuses and frustrates many patients. Similarly, EMR flow sheet does not integrate with HEP creating redundancy.
Support was pretty much always helpful. My only complaint was not being able to always get someone on the phone immediately during working hours and having to wait to hear back. But once we heard back, problems were solved quickly and sufficiently. Staff was always friendly and knowledgeable
WebPT has its entire separate platform for training, containing many different guides, tutorials, and video references to help you become familiar and competent with the software suites. This includes having various demonstrations that allow you to click and navigate pages in the ways you would actually do it in WebPT. WebPT also gives you a sandbox company in the actual website to tinker with and trial things out. This makes it easy to catch and avoid errors you would have otherwise made with active patient data/schedules.
I think it would help to have another education session maybe 6 months after the initial sessions. This would help the user come up with an enhanced experience after they have used the program for a period of time. It is hard to comprehend everything at first, especially for people that need hands on learning
Alora Home Health Software is more user friendly and the price is more affordable with a high quality service. Alora Home Health Software customer service is on point, Assistance is prompt and reassuring.
Also, I have used PTWired and HEP2GO, but they were not in the database. WebPT automatically generates a patient profile, which is very helpful. WebPT also doesn't require the patient to download an app from the App Store, which is an added step for patients to perform, which will decrease compliance.
The current terms and pricing would be fair if they provided adequate performance, reliability, support, and customer service. As they have lapsed in these areas WebPT is overpriced. I would not recommend any PT practice of any size agree to a long term contract with WebPT until they prove they will deliver on their promises.
I couldn’t access WebPT on multiple screens to complete tasks at an efficient and effective time. It works to adjust to the same things presented on one screen when trying to work on a separate project utilizing one therapists schedule. This complicated the goal and tasks needed to complete at the time
