    CareCloud
    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?

    The best scenario is a small non-profit clinic who needs a great EMR but cannot afford one like EPIC. I might also recommend this to colleagues who are starting a small business because I think PF would be a good, easy, and more affordable to get up and running. I think this EMR makes less sense in the setting of large academic institutions who need lots of easily manipulable data and a huge amount of support.

    Pros

    • 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.

    • Document storage- You can upload documents and attach them to specific patients. As well as flag documents that need to be signed, and assign them to specific doctors.
    • Charting- Very detailed integration for charting.
    • Reporting- We really enjoy the reports we can pull from within the software.

    Cons
    CareCloud
    • 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.

    • Have Physician Assistant as a provider status.
    • Make the notes section of each patients account displays towards the top of page and not the bottom.

    • Some of the "canned" reports are wrong. We have reported issues to Allscripts multiple times and they never were interested in fixing the problem.
    • The work and total RVU values that are assigned to each CPT code don't have a reference for the year so we have to keep changing them every year and overwrite the old ones.
    • There is no option to load facility and non-facility values for total RVUs.

    In my opinion and experience, they have a lack of customization so you have to constantly create hacks to make their system work for your practice.

    Moving away from paper reports is a little hard at first like ripping off a bandaid, but once you're fully integrated, it's just so much easier to see all your work over time and access reports, schedules, and all pertinent employment information for each patient. Not having to deal with paper files just changes the office completely.

    We always get a return call within the time stated. There are many available topics on the forum and it is often easy to find the issue you are seeking more information on. When we have tried the live chat feature we have been satisfied with the timeliness and response.

    I'm actually not sure if we call Allscripts support or our own support team with superusers. There never seems to be a problem that can't be fixed right away. The biggest problem you can have is when you start a report when the patient hasn't been checked in. I know how to fix it myself now, but it takes a few minutes with support when you need them to back it out.

    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.

    NextGen is hard to use as far as medical records. Practice Fusion is user friendly. There is a great knowledge base for questions asked. Practice Fusion takes all the guess work out of the day.

    • PRO -- I know now what I need in an EMR/EHR
    • CONS -- They have overcharged me and it has cost me money
    • CONS-- They have disregarded my legal rights which makes me unsure of keeping confidential info in their systems and it will cost me money to switch

    • I am only a user but it's easy to assume that this program is very expensive.
    • Access to reports across all providers is game-changing.
    • Helping the patient navigate care by seeing not just reports but scheduled visits is also a major plus.
