    ChartLogic is great for a practice that wants an EMR but doesn't want/need all the bells and whistles of a giant like Epic. It allows each individual doctor to create their own templates, smart fields and ways of seeing their messages, encounters etc so that while you have one EMR system each doctor can make it their own. Little to no computer experience or training needed to make things work easily.

    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.

    • Charting- Very detailed integration for charting.
    • Reporting- We really enjoy the reports we can pull from within the software.

    • Seems to usually be one extra unneeded "ok" button you have to click to make things save
    • Wish it had more reporting options

    • 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.

    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.

    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.
