athenaClinicals vs. VCDoctor

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.

VCDoctor is the perfect software to manage your healthcare operations but not suitable for emergency treatment.

• 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

• HIPPA: VCDoctor is strictly under the guidelines of HIPPA to secure patient details and brings trust to each other by ensuring that information is encrypted.
• Remote treatment plans.
• This allows patients sitting in the remote places to have a better health treatment on time Via VCDoctor.
• Practice management.
• This feature helps in case management and helps in assigning the roles and responsibilities to practicers.
• E-prescription.
• This feature allows the doctor to prescribe proper medication and helps patients in maintaining the past medication.

• 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

• Onsite office: If they could have a office or team in UK, it would be an added advantage.
• Multi layer
• Features are almost good, as the team is always open to adding functionalities as per requirement.

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.
