NextGen Enterprise EHR
Overall Satisfaction with NextGen Healthcare EHR
The NextGen Healthcare EHR is our primary electronic health record. It is used by all of our integrated health service providers: medical, dental, optical, behavioral, and pharmaceutical. We staff approximately 350 persons and provide healthcare services in 17 locations in Michigan.
Pros
- Provides a mechanism for documenting patient encounters.
- Allows/provides integration between healthcare services.
- Includes the practice management components needed.
Cons
- Because it is comprehensive, it is tough to learn.
- It is very picky about display resolution.
- There are many invoices and they are difficult to use. Invoices covering the same items, like licenses, are not co-termed.
- When NextGen demonstrates a new product, it does not differentiate between included features and features that come with added costs.
- Support is inconsistent. There are many language and skill barriers in tech support.
- Lacking response time to urgent issues. There is no workflow to address urgent needs.
- I am unable to answer this question.
Yes, we use these capabilities. However, this is an added-cost feature requiring additional implementation and support. We are testing with five providers, and they love it. We supplied them with iPads, however, as there were challenges using a cell phone.
The Meditech solution I used was a green screen product, so NextGen is a vast improvement over that (Meditech may have improved by now). The Horizon and McKesson EMRs that I used may not be correctly identified above, but my experience is that all EMRs provide the same basic functionality. The differences between them often reflect the product's price point.
