Overall Satisfaction with InterSystems IRIS

We using InterSystems IRIS as a full solution for our hospital facility to manage entire patient flows and financial flows as well. Technology- and solution-wise it's one super solution. I am previously working with multiple other HIS systems and I found a lot of new things in this HIS solution and users also a lot of new features also available. It's a really good solution.
  • Clinical part
  • RCM part they will done all most all the DHA and insurance integrations.
  • PAS part included the easiest methods for booking appointments and patient management is very easy.
  • Audit log for each and every action is a very good thing.
  • Code table concept is a very good idea for supporting staffs.
  • UI Part little bit improvement required, but that is not a big issue.
  • Once done the future booking for appointment we cannot reschedule the appointment up to today is lesser than that booking date.
  • g.: Today (29/07/2022) I am booking for an appointment on 01/08/2022, I want that appointment to need to reschedule to 31/07/2022, this is not possible.
  • If possible to reschedule the appointment up to the current date is a better option.
  • Patient Bill is cancelled then multiple records are getting created, this will be make confusion for users.
  • For IT staffs if you can provide the database related training it will be more helpful for manage the Realtime requirements.
  • Overbooking.
  • Multi booking.
  • Generate and attach the medical report.
  • Multi quick booking.
  • Payor Online validation.
  • Documentation makes strong.
  • Clinical part become more documented.
  • Audit log for each and every area helps more to reduce the issues in internal teams.
  • UI Design aspects is only one negative point I can say.

Yes

Technology-wise this is one of the best solutions. Overall this will cover all the needs of hospitals. Clinical part is very strong and easy to manage.

That I am found to be corrected is their design resolution aspects and it will need to be worked in any resolution.
