athenaClinicals vs. CareCloud

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.

If you provide services in the healthcare industry to any extent, I'd recommend looking into what they would have to offer. Great questions to ask are: what is the overall cost for this service and what would my ROI be? Would I stand to benefit more as a company if I implemented this platform early on in my business vs. implementing this later on in the development of my company? If yes, when would be the right time to do it and how?

• 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

• They provide training for the different types of ways Carecloud can be used for the benefit of the company.
• Their support service has been effective and hasty; they have addressed issues at hand and taken steps to troubleshoot and improve their service.
• They allow for some flexibility with regards to the user interface and allow users to customize their platform as efficiently as possible.

• 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

• The program itself shows amazing potential, however, the loading time on some of their functions can take longer than expected.
• Given that Android has such a hold over the marketplace, I expected them to develop a mobile app for that system as well. As of today, they only have mobile use of their platform on iOS.
• With regards to the second point, some more functional use of the mobile platform would be improve the use of their services for our company needs.

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

They are always there. Friendly and organized.

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.

Unfortunately, I have not had experience with other products in this line of profession. Be that as it may, I believe Carecloud has a strong product that allows our company to worry less on logistics and more on providing excellent services to our clients. Without this product, the company would spend more time on these tasks and less time on optimizing our service to others.
