If you are a user, please rate the EMR below.
Practice Fusion is the fastest growing Electronic Health Record community in the US. Founded in 2005, we’re rapidly expanding and adding new users. Over 18,000 physicians and practice managers in 50 states currently use Practice Fusion’s Electronic Health Record.
The free EMR software is provided in exchange for advertising on the tablet, in the form of a banner ad on the side or at the bottom. The banner ad is not overwhelming by any means but it is noticeable. Typical advertisers will be pharmaceutical companies, CVS, wal mart, and companies from related industries. There is the option for Practice Fusion to use the patient data(without identifying information) for clinical studies.
Practice Fusion has a billing service that can be performed in conjunction with the free software and charges 6.5% of collections which is within the range of normal for billing services. They also now have the ability to integrate with other billing programs thus eliminating the necessity of using their billing service. Scheduling is a component of the EMR but at the time of writing this post, Practice Fusion does not have the E-prescription capability. The screen and workflow seem very user friendly and easy to navigate. The scheduling component is functional and will get the job done for large or small offices.
Practice Fusion announced last week that SalesForce.com has invested in their product which should continue to keep the technology and software utilized by Practice Fusion
