*~ Amazing ~*

Kommentare: The benefits of this program are vast. The system streamlines everything into one platform without having to have multiple programs or browsers open to complete one task. Their customer service is superb! Highly recommend!

Vorteile:

This software is easy to use with guides that allow you helpful tips on how to complete the tasks at hand. If I ever get stuck, creating a help ticket or "case" is easy and takes just a few minutes. The turnaround from their help center staff is quick and amazing! I have always received an answer to my question and if the first help center employee didn't know, they kept my case open while they helped figure it out. The accessibility of this system is an amazing feature as well. The IE browser can be utilized from virtually anywhere, making this charting system easy to use with automatic updates being done seamlessly. The report function is AMAZING also! This feature allows you to customize reports and if needed, export to Microsoft Excel. The report feature also allows you to customize and save your report as your own. This is such a time-saving bonus! Their billing software is great also, allowing for daily billing to be completed with ease. Again, if I ever encounter a problem, the solution is just a few clicks away.

Nachteile:

This system did take a few weeks to get used to, but what system doesn't. This isn't really a drawback, just a learning curve. Hang in there.....it gets easier!

Costly but fully featured and constanly developing

Kommentare: Very professional group that know their product well, and are eager to help find solutions to issues that come up. Software (once setup and trained) is easy to navigate.

Vorteile:

-ease of use for field staff (iPad App) -lots of built in reports for getting data out of the system -easy to contact support and get resolutions -constantly updating and developing enhancements to the product -constantly keeping customers up to date on reg. changes, and upcoming product changes and timelines -documentation is straight forward and easy to follow -order compliance features keep us compliant with orders when scheduling visits

Nachteile:

-takes lots of time and training to get used to -scheduling components lacking compared to old solution -expensive compared to our old solution (we were grandfathered into a very old rate so this was just us getting into modern licensing costs) - only guaranteed 100% comparability with their Web product by using Internet Explorer (which even MS says you shouldn't use anymore!). Only about 95% of the product works in Chrome or Firefox. - lots of time spent (months before deployment) learning and setting up the product. But they have streamlined this as much as i think they can.

EHR works okay, but it's not perfect.

Kommentare: Generally their help desk staff are very helpful. Sometimes they too are limited at what can be done. It seems that at least most things that are not able to be fixed at the current moment, do end up on their future update list.It would be great, if Agencies were able to have more options and have better control of what we need to have or would like to be able to make mandatory or not. Or to be able to include different groups/types/selections of things to pick from.

Vorteile:

Syncing - it takes seconds to a minute to complete. Staff can sync their ipads as often as they want/need and information flows back and forth instantly. Software has it's own billing module within the same program. - You do not have to transfer files back and forth using a third party billing software. Chatting with Support - As long as they are available (they are not always available though).

Nachteile:

Clinical App vs Live Version - It is basically like having two different software systems. While they both contain the same info; certain things can only be done on the live version and certain things can only be done on the mobile app. - This is probably our biggest frustration. It make it harder to help out staff when they have issues because after implementation if you change your processes it's hard for office staff to stay up-to-date with new processes and updates that have happened . Charting/Scheduling/etc. - Some of the ways things need to be fixed or the only way they can be fixed is sometimes greatly time consuming. Customizable - The system is not as customizable as lead to believe. There are quite a few things that we are not able to change to customize for our agency. Speech to text - Doesn't really work for our staff. We ended up buying Bluetooth keyboards for the iPad to make charting a little easier. Admissions still take a long time.. It's not possible to be done in less then 6 hours.Medication list - importing and entering in meds is not as easy as it should be.

EMR that truly understands both Clinical Workflow and Billing and Administrative Needs!

Vorteile:

I love the fact that we can use it for all our Clinical, billing, and administrative needs. It is efficient and updated with the regulations to ensure we are compliant.

Nachteile:

We would like more ability to customize visit note templates and not have to use a copy and paste functionality into the Narrative section.

Definite Upgrade!

Kommentare: The extensive reports that can be pulled from within the Bright system have allowed our organization to be more aware of overall process issues, such as outstanding verbal orders, certification period due dates and timely charting. Absolutely has enabled us to solidify, or change, processes and get a more smoothly running clinical team!

Vorteile:

One of the best things that I love about Brightree is how aware of regulatory changes they are and how responsive they are to make the necessary changes to the software to keep their clients compliant and in-the-know. I never feel like I have to beg for information of how they are going to address new regulatory requirements. They also are really aware of the impact on their consumers and are very helpful with integration of new changes.

Nachteile:

When certain things require more development-related help, the length of time can be quite extensive if it has a lower priority rating. However, for high-priority needs, most things are fixed within hours to days. Excellent responsiveness to requests.
