EMA is perfect for dermatology practices of any size.

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
Modernizing Medicine
  • Intuitive workflows and user experience design, easing training of new staff and providers.
  • Allows providers to quickly access prior diagnoses, plans, and impressions. They may even pull these forward for follow-up care documentation.

  • 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
Modernizing Medicine
  • Besides tasks, it would be nice to have a function where you could have reminders set - ex. "Call back patient on Friday 8/6"
  • When I go to support, I end up getting a phone number for sales instead of a support line.

  • 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.

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.
