DrChrono is less appropriate for this reason: they have been working on enrolling my company for Medicare electronic billing for [seven months].

Although the EHR software industry is still developing, Allscripts has proven to be better than most.

Ease of monitoring reports from all providers for each provider Ease of copying last report into current on Ease of deleting report when starting the wrong type of report Read full review Cons [Onboarding] trainers and tech support do not know the program. [All] DrChrono calls are from blocked, [unknown], or their personal numbers. [Looking] at [each] caller ID, you have to answer every call because they do not register as DrChrono. DrChrono [uses] [Google] phone and [I could] not understand what [a] trainer [said] [when I called them]. [I could not hear what the trainer said] over the noise of other conversations on [Google] phone. [I] [had] absolutely no way of talking to tech support in person. [Tech] support tickets [are] unanswered. [They] do not know how to enroll providers to bill Medicare electronically. [There was] absolutely no accountability. [The] platform was constantly down [and was very frustrating]. [There was a] consistently, delayed submission. [Every] day, [I got] an email about a problem that they are working on. [Weekly] issues for platform [was] addressed for slowness. Tech support needs [to have professional people answering tech problems, needs to be reliable, and be responsive whenever someone has issues]. [The] tutorial videos [for DrChrono] are from several years [ago] and no longer apply to the [most] current platform layout. [The] help browser [is] nonfunctional. [Tech support is not well trained. You can not talk to anyone in person and they often do not answer tech tickets. Onboard trainers do not know their system. Customer often figures out the answers before the training rep. Between the accent and the noise of Google phone, my entire training session was asking her to repeat what she said. When they are rated lowest of the group for tech support, it is for a reason].

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. Read full review Likelihood to Renew DrChrono has resulted in revenue loss

Usability If you don't want to do anything custom, the platform is pretty easy to navigate.

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.

Performance For the most part, the program slowness has not affected me directly.

Support Rating Their tech support is not well trained. You can not talk to tech support directly. You have to submit work tickets, which have gone unanswered

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.
Read full review Online Training When being trained on the billing program, rather than start at the beginning and "TRAIN HOW TO USE THE PROGRAM" the trainer kept asking me what questions I had. I kept saying I don't know what I don't know. Her response was, ok, were done then. You don't have anymore questions. The only thing I could think to do was ask her to explain each item in each drop down box, but she would just read out loud the drop down choices and ask what questions I had. This pretty much sums up their training.

Alternatives Considered TheraOffice has the best tech support and onboarding training. WebPT is also good, but their charting templates lack customization. RehabOptima and Casamba are straight forward and reliable. I am currently stuck with DrChrono.

Return on Investment Negative: I have lost reimbursement due to the time for tech support to address ticket and the max claims submission time. Negative: I have [not had any medicare revenue for seven months] due to DrChrono not knowing how to enroll for Medicare Electronic Billing. This issue still has not been resolved. Negative: Lost time due to the platform being down or running slow. Negative: Slow claims processing. Negative: DrChrono needs [qualified] tech support, [quality] [for] onboard training, [timely] response to technical issues, [and timely] response to billing issues.

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. Read full review ScreenShots
