Dental offices needing to scale down the many services they use would be a perfect fit. I think any medical facility would use Nexhealth and love it! A situation where a doctor is looking to expand their online presence is also a great opportunity for Nexhealth. We have gotten 100s of new Google reviews, but the great thing is they are all 5 star. We used Swell and granted, Swell gets a higher review count, but Nexhealth is pretty good!

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.

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.

We always get a return call within the time stated. There are many available topics on the forum and it is often easy to find the issue you are seeking more information on. When we have tried the live chat feature we have been satisfied with the timeliness and response.

Nexhealth is superior because it is more advanced in customization than all of the above. We have had a few issues with syncing and I don't want practices to overlook this. The program is not 100% foolproof.

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.
