Pros/Cons
Pros
- Meditech easily allows for better communication between providers to improve patient care and allow for decreased lengths of hospital stays over all.
- Great product overall and get compliments that it's better than some othe EHR competitors.
- Used this EHR in medium sized hospital for rounding and care of orthopedic patients. Mostly was good at allowing access to information both within and outside of the hospital.
Cons
- We were forced to use the system in my department, but some staff Dr's refused to use it. I used this software at 2 different hospitals and both were bad.
- It is extremely troubling and in our litigious society I am not sure how they justify the lack of descriptors.
- I have worked with numerous other EHR's and Meditech is by far the worst.
Pros
- Netsmart is constantly improving their product and has made it possible for us to move forward and successfully receive "Meaningful Use" stimulus dollars to help pay for our EHR initiatives.
- I have used other systems and all are better. I cannot even say it is reliable.
- The home viewing screen is use friendly, When the user sees the screen for the first time, It it makes you comfortable for training, simplistic as opening up a paper chart.
Cons
- To give you an idea of how bad it is, the software would often crash while in the middle of using it with a client/patient.
- Daily despair, progressing more recently to potentially life-threatening arrhythmias. Seeing patients while documenting and looking for data concurrently is a torturous burden.
- The upgrade from MyAvatar to MyAvatarNX was actually worse. The software is so bad that it demoralized me to the point of looking for different employment after 7 years.
