    AMS Software
    It offers a very helpful and surcure platform and can be easy to use once you get use to the platform.

    Works well for family med and peds primary care. Would not be well suited to wound healing/hyperbaric medicine practice in current configuration as the specific documentation requirements of wound management and hyperbaric treatments don't mesh well with the layout and forms that I observed.

    athenahealth
    • Quality programs - able to see what measures are outstanding for the patient
    • Reporting - able to report on multiple financial reports as well as clinical information
    • Standardization of clinical information - the system forces users within the same specialty to use the same templates (as a starting point), therefore it is easier to standardize protocols and treatments of care

    • The schedule needs to be improved. You should be able to see the schedule in a day, a week , in a month view and be able to schedule directly from the schedule.
    • It's difficult to name items because they are traditionally corrected very quickly

    Overall the system is good. Actually, this was supposed to be the universal EMR when it came out during the Bush administration.

    For a surgery center application, it is much better to use a system that is uniquely designed for surgery centers. Using Athena as a less than desirable work around has been a frustrating experience.
