Intergy

Intergy works well for us

Kommentare: Intergy PM has helped grow our business, increase efficiencies, and help ro reduce overhead.

Vorteile:

The Intergy PM and Practice Analytics reporting system are great for our business. The ease of claims entry and transmission has helped streamline our processes.

Nachteile:

Some of the Enterprise functions are meant for a large multi-specialty practice and not a RCM/billing company like ours. But it does not hamper our use of Intergy.

Intergy PM Review

Kommentare: It has been great. Our PM set-up phase and go-live went great. We were prepared and ready to go. Our billing did not miss a beat.

Vorteile:

The billing set-up/features are easy to set up and easy to use.

Nachteile:

I would like to see some more built in reports with filters. We can always run/write reports in Practice Analytics - but not all users have PA access. Some additional Finance and A/R reports would be great.

I feel like I'm in bizarro world

Kommentare: We are a small practice and have sunk too much into changing so now we feel trapped. We have longtime employees talking of quitting because this system is such a frustrating mess. Supposedly there is an update "in the spring" that we are hoping at least makes the software useable.

Vorteile:

We switched over from Primesuite early because Greenway told us if we did so there would be no extra charge for the new software and Primesuite was no longer being supported.

Nachteile:

Where to begin? This software has literally brought our thriving practice to its knees. That in and of itself says it all. I have 2 partners in their later careers talking imminent retirement due to this system. I've been in practice 10 years and have found myself looking at other options solely due to the Intergy switch. We were happy using Greenway Primesuite. Like all EMRs, it sucked but at least didn't get in the way of providing patient care. We were told Greenway would no longer be supporting Primesuite and so we assumed (wrongly it turns out) that at the very least we'd get an upgraded version of Primesuite. We couldn't have been more wrong. I feel like I've stepped back 15 years and cannot think of 1 improvement from the old software. Customer Support has been abysmal. Greenway sent trainers to help us when we went live. Problem was they didn't really know how to use the system. Then on day 3 of going live there was an "update" that completely changed to look of the system and which the trainers had not received any training on. At that point they could no longer answer any of our questions and were learning along with us. The one bit of help in this whole mess was when our trainer admitted this EMR was crap but that they're all crap. Appreciated the honesty in a mess of lies.

There is no such thing as a perfect EHR/EMR system

Vorteile:

I have been using Greenway Intergy for about 4 years. I previously used a different Greenway EHR system for about years before Intergy. The support is usually pretty knowledgeable about issues and if they aren't able to help they will escalate your case to a higher support team. Within the last 3 to 4 years, Greenway has really stepped up their game with trying to enhance their product. They formed a program for end users to help enhance features within the system. End users were given the opportunity to give feedback about what we liked and disliked and how we felt it could be better. This was a very well thought out program that actively met multiple times within a month for probably 2 years. That is probably my favorite thing that Greenway has ever done. Forms are used in the charting process and I personally don't care for most of the forms that are provided, but the good thing about Intergy is that you can build your own forms to meet your practice's specific needs. They do have a wide range of forms that would most likely fit the needs of other practices. There are a lot of features offered within Intergy.

Nachteile:

Implementation was one of the worst experiences. Our health center used a Greenway EHR system called Success EHS that Greenway discontinued and we were forced to the conversion of Intergy. Go-Live day was so bad that we ended up using paper chart notes for about 2 weeks. Most likely, a practice using Intergy will need a "super user" because some of the workflows are difficult to perform for the average user. You will need to come up with your own training plan for new employees. Although they have training videos, almost all of them are out of date. The billing process needs a major overhaul.

User Friendly and Full of Features

Vorteile:

Intergy is very user friendly. It's easy to navigate and to find information on a patient as all activity pertaining to the patient stays within their Intergy account. The user doesn't have to go to separate areas of the software to piece together a story. Scheduling and Patient Management is easy to use and flows nicely. Patient demographics are easy to navigate and the main information on a patient is located all on one screen. Intergy has a robust variety of basic reports built in. For higher level, detailed reporting we use their Practice Analytics (separate system) but the ones within Intergy do give the basics needed for a practice. The ability to create and print custom letters is a great feature. Charge and payment posting is easy to do. The financial activity portion of Intergy is well developed and one of the best compared to other systems I've seen. Tracking activity is easy and all transactions for a charge are easy to understand and follow. System allows for charges to be voided. Financial activity can also be reversed (payment takebacks, contractual adjustments, etc.) easily when necessary.

Nachteile:

We encounter some issues regarding to set-up for our large multi-specialty practice with multiple sites and providers. We need the ability to have multiple costs centers for a provider but would have to purchase an additional provider user/license for this, which causes other issues. Fee schedule maintenance would be nice to have option to pull the allowable based upon POS.
