Power Diary vs. Veradigm Practice Management

The most important thing is that I feel confident that my client records are kept secure and private, and that Power Diary has strict security and privacy measures in place
and compliance with relevant legislative and regulatory requirements. Data is
encrypted, and two factor authentication is required to access the system. I can't think of any scenarios where it would be less appropriate to use.

Although the EHR software industry is still developing, Allscripts has proven to be better than most.

• Templates are amazing and easy to use
• Emails and SMS directly to clients
• File management is good

Incentivized

• Ease of monitoring reports from all providers for each provider
• Ease of copying last report into current on
• Ease of deleting report when starting the wrong type of report

• When I schedule supervision/meetings etc. in the calendar, it only shows my practice addresses and I have not been able to work out how to add the meeting address. I just add it to the notes section.
• I worked as a standby counsellor for a corporate event and was required to support multiple students if necessary. I had to invoice the corporation and add them as a client. PD is more suited to adding individual clients. I would be great to improve this.

• Some of the "canned" reports are wrong. We have reported issues to Allscripts multiple times and they never were interested in fixing the problem.
• The work and total RVU values that are assigned to each CPT code don't have a reference for the year so we have to keep changing them every year and overwrite the old ones.
• There is no option to load facility and non-facility values for total RVUs.

Moving away from paper reports is a little hard at first like ripping off a bandaid, but once you're fully integrated, it's just so much easier to see all your work over time and access reports, schedules, and all pertinent employment information for each patient. Not having to deal with paper files just changes the office completely.

I'm actually not sure if we call Allscripts support or our own support team with superusers. There never seems to be a problem that can't be fixed right away. The biggest problem you can have is when you start a report when the patient hasn't been checked in. I know how to fix it myself now, but it takes a few minutes with support when you need them to back it out.

Centricity is much more difficult to get support for in my experience.

• Peace of mind that client records are secure, and help is available from PD when required.
• Easy to manage client records.
• I feel confident that as my practice grows, PD system will make it easy for me to manage my client load and keep up to date with everything.

• I am only a user but it's easy to assume that this program is very expensive.
• Access to reports across all providers is game-changing.
• Helping the patient navigate care by seeing not just reports but scheduled visits is also a major plus.
