Veradigm Practice Management vs. Therabill by WebPT

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

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.

• 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

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

• 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.

Incentivized

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

We are actually looking at other options - unsure whether we will continue

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.

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.

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.

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

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

WebPT helps with all record keeping, compliance and note taking while therabill helps with making billing easy to perform and track.

• 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.

• Increased ease with financials year over year
• easy to track profits
• easy to track busy seasons
