Khaled, I might qualify my statement above about "total immersion". Although we did start using most of the features in AC right from the start, we did implement it in a few steps: first, we just played with it and made a couple of fake p

Agreed, that I do not have to do that many, but only would to qualify. I read somewher (I thought) about different criteria for surgeons. Can't recall. I honestly think it's the government's responsibility to come up with a way to communicate with

Indy- Can you explain in more detail specifically how an Updox user could share records? How about the specific example given by Travis; a referring doc wants to share records, demographics, etc. with a specialist.

Is there someplace other than in the NewCropScreens -> Administrator section to set preferences for drug interactions? I don't see how to turn them off entirely.

Travis - there are several ways to accomplish this, some easier than others. General approaches: 1>Email and/or File Encryption 2>Transparent (SAAS) Messaging encryption 3>Messaging Portal Unless the Doc you are messaging has propeller-hea

Another thing. I'm reviewing the criteria and I realize that these are primary care issues through and through. I don't do immunizations, rarely do too much labwork, don't order preventive exams/tests, don't order a ton of medications, don't send p

Odd Bert. I just posted a question about CCR and how to electronically communicate that with other docs. Not sure how to do it. I would suspect shipping it in an email as a big no-no. Giving a patient a CD with their health info also sounds a bit

So as I continue to play with v5 and future and present capabilities, can someone tell me how CCR (Continuity of Care Record) works or is supposed to work? As a specialist, the idea of importing a CCR for me is outstanding. If my referring docs use

Travis, ePrescribe is awesome. But, forget out interactions. I turned that off within an hour. Hell, it has Bactroban cream interacting with Bactroban ointment. I exaggerate (although I should check), but the yellow and red just overwhelms the sense

I also think you have until July 2011 to start using it to get the 2011 money. It will be interesting to see how they check this to assure you're meeting the requirements. It may simply be that we sign a letter saying we're doing it but rarely is t

Khaled, It can also be helpful to designate an employee such as an MA to be a super user. For instance, my MA just picked it up and also likes to figure things out. She is able to help the others when they have questions.

Thanks Travis. I know Indy and I are baffled by the inability of it to go directly to the server. Just doesn't make sense. But, I do seem to recall a user from this town (not Adam) who had the Brother and I went over there and tried to do it and coul

I didn't take it as defensive at all Bert. Just a constructive talk about hardware. No doubt in my mind that there are other MFP that are better. But I have the Brother in the office now, it works well, and I'll change it when it croaks. My main

And to be fair to AC, I don't know of too many people who have alternating schedules per each week. So building this functionality into the scheduler would be a moderate amount of programming for very few who would benefit from it. The best plan is

Definitely the scheduler and letter writer are two of the weaknesses especially for specialists. Granted, for straightforward scheduling and letter writer, they work great. But being able to adapt them to your particular practice is the difficult pa

I also just noticed another big problem- at least for me: the schedule doesn't allow for 2 blocks of endoscopy time on the same day. I was hoping to achieve that by having a long break in the middle of the day between the 2 blocks, but the break tops
