To start, Nextgen PM is NOT well-suited for companies who are looking for a could-based product—you will be required to house this software on your own server (this will force that company to maintain their own infrastructure). The solution is great for a company looking for a PM/EHR combo that communicates well with each other. The two modules are owned by the same company and does not require a costly API/bridge to be built between the two programs.

If was a zero on the scale I would choose. if Zocdoc charged a flat fee monthly for a referrals that would make more sense. Otherwise they are the only ones benefiting from the service. They are a total scam! do not utilize them as a referral source unless you want to lose money! Zocdoc is completely OK with tacking on innocuous and inaccurate charges. Further, they refuse to work with you on paying it. as it stands, I will be filing a complaint with a Better Business Bureau. Zocdoc has been accused of violating the anti kickback law put into place to stop such predator practice. Given that soft dock is a corporation and they have hired a team of lawyers to speak legally used to squeeze their way out of taking responsibility. They know what they're doing is wrong. They just don't care

Cons
NextGen Healthcare
  • The software requires annoying/disruptive updates.
  • The software is housed on our own server. We have found that cloud-based solutions are much more convenient.
  • At times, the system is a bit "slow."
  • The canned reporting/BI tool is not as malleable as many of the other solutions we have used and/or trialed.
  • We were able to achieve cost-savings through some other systems.

Zocdoc
  • high cost for customer acquisition
  • customers cancel and practice has no recourse, but must pay Zocdoc
  • Not enough time to verify the customer is sincere and get their paperwork in before Zoc Doc charges us
  • High cost of service for nurse practitioners
  • High rate of attrition- few customers converted to our practice compared to other methods
  • We were promised one rate per customer acquired, then the posted rate was increased, twice
  • Unable to even charge a no show fee for patients who changed at last minute
  • the service as set up encourages patients to bait and switch to other providers at the last minute
  • there is no way to limit incoming patients to your home state, so people from out of state book and then have to be notified and unbooked, creating extra work and hassle

if there was a rating of zero this is what I would give him. Perhaps -10? as I mentioned they are great at getting your referrals, just the wrong ones. There is no extremely process for getting the right client to the right provider. Their calendar sink does not work so they will book over the top of you frequently. They refused to work with you on a reasonable payment plan

NextGen was more scattered and less streamlined than either Allscripts or EPIC

I can't select it, but I do use psychology today. They charge a flat fee and allow you to list your profile and information on their website. I have gained many referrals from them for 1/8 of the price

Return on Investment
NextGen Healthcare
  • Nextgen did a good job of transitioning our practice away from paper health records.
  • I believe that the Return on Investment would have been much higher had we gone straight to a cloud-based tool.
  • By getting our feet wet with Nextgen, we have a pretty good understanding of Practice Management software. In other words, we could plug and play with most systems on the market.

  • I have lost money utilizing Zocdoc.
  • Even though they claim their calendars sync with Google, they frequently booked over me, which upset clients I attempted to work with.
  • When confronted with their unethical behavior, they basically have it "It sucks to be you" attitude.
