Cerner Practice Management (PowerWorks) vs NueMD

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited in the clinical setting although a little tedious. Not suited in many other places.

Once the initial transition was complete, the software has been easy to work with and efficient. Payments are coming in quickly and we can identify errors in billing before submission making the process smooth.

Pros

Scheduling - I personally enjoy the ease of use with the solution. It also has a great "memory" as to patient rescheduling, no shows, etc. Being able to create multiple schedules to reflect different practitioners is such a major plus in this system.
Customization - I am able to create Super-bills, Global Periods, and Insurance Details pertinent to each patient and not have to RECREATE them every time like I had to in past systems.
EOB - an added bonus is the ability for the system to check EOB ahead of time. This is a HUGE time saving in an office!

Everything within the system works smoothly, it’s just time-consuming and could be a bit more simplistic.

Alternatives Considered

I personally would use this system over any other systems currently on the market. Athena has a nice product...however, it can be quite expensive and the colors are draining on the eyes. eClinical Works also has a system that is comparable, but the customization I found wasn't as easy as the Cerner product

NueMD is easier to use and more reliable than Allscripts. Allscripts feequently had technical problems when we eere using it.
It is more economical and a better value than Athena. It has the same features at a much lower price.
