Okay. Here's my rant for the month I am SO fed up with being forced to change crap yet again! HCFA forms, coding, software, electronic claims, uploads, downloads, now I have to buy new computers for new frickin' operating systems. Doesn't anyone realize that it all costs money, and lots of it? The public complains about health care costing too much, but this is all part of it! We can use our hands and brains to provide the ACTUAL care, but the tools required to just file a damn claim keep having to be changed again and again! GRRRRRRR!
Full system is around $15,000, but EMR and Practice Management share a single database. And it has pop-up notes, which we need due to the complexity of our billing (labs and radiology, etc.)
You mean each client has their own database right? Just clarifying.
I'm still scratching my head as to why vendors don't move to MAC.. it's an awfully well known FACT they are more secure.
Annnd of course ... 100% of our computers run on XP.
