buying Amazing Charts vs. E-MD's

January 4, 2007

Hello,

OK.

Time to decide whether to buy Amazing Charts. I thought I had a

little more time before I had to decide, having opened November 1, I was

using the 3 month free trial, but because I didn't delete my practice

patients, I got over 10 patients, so today, with my first pap scheduled,

I was locked out of Amazing Charts unless I paid. I was planning to

look into E-MD's a little more before I decided. Today I used

paper, which was actually fine once I got over the panic, but I want to

make a decision soon.

I only

need the EMR part of the E-MD's (not practice management as far as I

know). When I called them today, I was quoted $4500 license fee

plus $800/year maintenance plus $500-$2500 for training. AC is $995

plus $500 year. I had thought E-MD's was much more expensive (I

thought around $30K), so I didn't seriously look at it before. For

my extremely low volume, it is still a significant difference, but

doable.

I read

through some of the old posts, but searching through them was quite

tedious, so I was hoping for a little insight.

Thanks,

Sharon
