- The schedule needs to be improved. You should be able to see the schedule in a day, a week , in a month view and be able to schedule directly from the schedule.

No - Its inclusive with my monthly payment.
Yes - the numbers on the pages of medical records just one day went away. But when I checked with CSC they were able to correct quickly.
As a new practice manager years ago coming to a new EMR, I was green to Athenahealth. I would call several times a day regarding absolutely everything and each time I was impressed of what was already in place for my difficult questions. Workflow, Training. Learning portals. Learning classrooms for when new employees were hired. Still get amazed to this day. Its like they sat down with a bunch of practice managers and said "hey what is it you would want from an EMR? and gave it to them. They are constantly tweeking and making it better.
