Nextech EMR vs. VCDoctor

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.

VCDoctor is the perfect software to manage your healthcare operations but not suitable for emergency treatment.

• 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.

Incentivized

• HIPPA: VCDoctor is strictly under the guidelines of HIPPA to secure patient details and brings trust to each other by ensuring that information is encrypted.
• Remote treatment plans.
• This allows patients sitting in the remote places to have a better health treatment on time Via VCDoctor.
• Practice management.
• This feature helps in case management and helps in assigning the roles and responsibilities to practicers.
• E-prescription.
• This feature allows the doctor to prescribe proper medication and helps patients in maintaining the past medication.

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

• Onsite office: If they could have a office or team in UK, it would be an added advantage.
• Multi layer
• Features are almost good, as the team is always open to adding functionalities as per requirement.

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.

Before VCDoctor, I was using Practice Fusion for the last 3.5 years. I came across with this product through reference and I initially started VCDoctor as a pilot/trial version

• 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.

• It's good to start with a software like VCdoctor to enter into the competitive industry.
