CareLogic EHR vs. Therabill by WebPT

Carelogic EHR, by Qualifacts is the second scheduling software my company has used, and so long as there are no unfortunate changes it will be our last. It is user friendly, meaning that it is easy to train employees in, and is well organized. The simple interface takes out much of the guess work.

For smaller clinics who see fewer numbers of patients or rarely deal with claim denials, Therabill by WebPT would be satisfactory and effective for use. However, because the workflows for handling claim denials and for entering batch payments can be so tedious, difficult, and time-consuming, I would not recommend the suite for businesses with greater quantities of daily claims or complex billing scenarios.

• Schedule based- the schedule is easy to use.
• Documentation tied to appointment- no question regarding what to complete when a client comes in.
• Prescription software integration with PDMP- no need to check state sites.

Incentivized

• Great integration with WebPT
• Love the auto posting of patient payments when we apply ERAs - and the ability to not apply if there is a secondary.
• The Patient statements are pretty easy to send out. Love that we have options to print or email them.
• The zendesk site answers a LOT of questions and is a fantastic resource.

Incentivized

• It is difficult to obtain information from CareLogic for use in customized reports if the user is not familiar with building reports in Pentaho.
• Rather than having the capability to transmit electronic prescriptions on its own, CareLogic relies on an external program to do so. Prescribers must exit out of the document they are in so that they can access the external electronic prescription system. This system has an additional cost. It would be nice if it could be an all in one system.
• While the company is usually eager to respond to customer needs, something always seems to be broken or need updating in regards to functionality. This may be a function of our agency's location and the unusual needs we have due to our state mandates, but it is tiring to always have to worry about a workaround.

Incentivized

• Customer Services is hit or miss
• Payments sometimes applied incorrectly
• Lack of Guidance for set up

The UI is fairly user-friendly and finding what you need on the site isn't that difficult. Once set up, EDI and ERA receipt works smoothly and payment posting from ERAs is straightforward and simple for the most part. But handling claim denials, corrections, and resubmissions is incredibly difficult. It is not only difficult to find and sort them, but to send them out for reprocessing as well.

The rating of "3" represents CareLogic's quick loading of pages, however, the reports are super slow and there is no progress bar or notification to let you know if a report is running or not. I've let a report run for an hour before only to find out that the interface never registered my click to run the report.

The customer support at Qualifacts is great. When you have an issue you can submit a ticket to support and they're on top of getting things straightened out and always available by phone as well. The struggle with the overall support is it doesn't seem like the needs of the users are heard. When you ask for what should be a simple fix or something that seems the system is missing, it gets labeled an Enhancement Request which is where requests go to pasture.

Chat is great but often not working or very slow responses. Can't easily talk to a person about issues and emails are very slow to get answered

CareLogic is more a affordable that other competitors. CareLogic takes less time to understand and incorporate. I would say that it has its limitations and is not as intuitive. There is a lot of clicking back and forth between functions and can be annoying. There is also sometimes loss of data. If something goes wrong in the program there is no backup- this may be something that can be added, but my company has chosen not to
