Nextech EMR vs. Qualifacts Insync

I have and will continue to recommend MDI (a Nextech EMR system) to other ophthalmology/retina practices through the AAOE etalk. MDI was developed by an ophthalmologist specific for ophthalmologists and the specific needs they have which makes it very easy to use. Uploading the images is easy. We are also able to share information with other practices on the system.

Insync [Healthcare Solutions] is amazing for behavioral health settings. The customer support/help desk is very responsive. When I call someone answers within 3 minutes and spends as much time as I need resolving any questions. Establishing the medical record is simple with treatment planning easily accessible. Onboarding new staff is effortless, especially with the use of their video tutorials. My office assistant told me today, "I have worked with a lot of EMR's and this is by far the best ever". I totally agree!!

• Integration with our PM system was done in 2009 and they built the bridge between the two companies.
• Drawings and testing images are uploaded easily.
• The ability to keep track of reporting for CMS is very helpful.

• Easy launch from the scheduler to all aspects of patient chart
• Smooth processes from check-in to accounts receivable
• Individualized support, especially on the RCM side with Account Managers
• User-friendly interface and excellent email/phone support
• Ability to customize with the Implementation team
• On-site training - so very helpful!

• I would like to be able to close charts correctly for staff who are no longer with us as an administrator

• We would love to be able to send reports via secure email (the functionality s there, but the other party needs the same software, and that is rare in our area
• We would love to have electronic visit verification integrated into the software - right now we need to use a 3rd party software package

We are shopping for a replacement software now.

We have a very common behavioral health practice. We were stunned to learn that they did not have templates for common procedures. They create every customer system from scratch. That causes unnecessary delay and aggravation. Plus, you can't make any modifications after the fact. Whatever you decided on Day 1 you are stuck with.

CUSTOMER SERVICE is above par where NexGen had what we called no-customer service. Ease of use without having the make our own templates constantly. Upgrades are seamless and no added cost.

Claims and statements are easy to monitor. [Insync Healthcare Solutions] has listened [to] its clients and built a system that caters to all!!!!!!! No regrets with our decision to go with [Insync Healthcare Solutions]!!!!

• Being able to fax notes immediately to referring doctors and PCPs is very important. It saves on time and paper/toner not having to print out and then fax.
• Not having to develop and/or print out the pictures/FAs and having them upload immediately so doctor can treat at the same visit.

• We love the ease of use, it really creates a smooth process between departments.
• We have had some issues with the billing, but it is partially staffing and partially training- we are still working with our staff and our representative from Insync to fix these errors, so it is difficult to put the blame on Insync [Healthcare Solutions]. I believe some of it is user error.
• The conflicting information we receive from Insync support has created a lot of issues in the billing department. I would like more consistency from their support team, as I have witnessed two people ask the same question, and get a completely different answer. Again, this could be a user error contributing to the confusion, but consistent responses would be helpful to solve the issues.
