#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

#### Pros

I enjoy how they continually make upgrades to make the platform compatible with the ever-changing healthcare system.

#### Cons

I don't like how you cannot go back and edit a message once you send it to a fellow employee in Practice Fusion. And also think about their help portal is not very helpful.

#### Reasons for switching to Practice Fusion

The other platform was absolutely awful. This was recommended to us.

It is the most comprehensive medical EHR on the market. We were involved with Practice Fusion for over 15 years, and it is tailor-made for Pediatrics in all factors, including vaccine inventory tracking and reporting.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5

#### Pros

It is structured in SOAP form for easy documentation and scheduling, and produced useful reports to meet government required reporting.

#### Cons

The glitches in updates were challenging at times, but they all worked out over time. It is by far the least complicated EHR on the market.

#### Reasons for choosing Practice Fusion

No product came close the comprehensive display of features for Pediatrics

### A great budget option if you don't need customization

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Verified Reviewer
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Medical Practice

- Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years

I initially implemented the product when it was a standalone product offered for free. It was an ambitious but limited piece of software that was eventually sold to Allscripts. Very soon after, the business model shifted from selling aggregated data and in-product advertising to a subscription model, but still remains very inexpensive. The system is very rigid in that it does not offer a lot of options for customizing or the ability to develop workflows specific to a practice, but it has all of the basics as well as some features that other vendors charge extra for (lab integrations, patient portal, etc.). For a more robust feature set, you may need to use the limited number of third-part integrations that are offered, which will have additional costs associated. Overall, it's one of the quickest and easiest EHR systems I've setup (eCW/Nextgen/Aria) and it works well because of the universal design/limited options. If you can get it to fit most of your needs (and you get a free trial to figure that out), then you probably won't find many options that can compete with it on price. If you have a large office and complicated systems, you might find other systems provide a better value proposition.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Easy implementation (up and running in a day). Reasonably good feature set (lab integration, call and text reminders, patient portal). Very competitive price. Free to try.

#### Cons

Very little customization. Initial navigation is not very intuitive. Requires annual commitment. Additional features use third party integrations and have additional costs associated. Lack of device integration.

#### Reasons for choosing Practice Fusion

Cost of the product was the primary driver (free at the time of implementation).

#### Reasons for switching to Practice Fusion

The practice was downsizing and needed a basic EHR for e-prescribing, labs, and visits. The product was free at the time and had enough features to be usable.

### Practice Fusion is cool but not suitable for administrative tasks in a clinical setting.

As an admin in a clinical setting, Practice Fusion is cool when it comes to clinical record task like patient charts, clinical notes and e-prescribing but when it comes to administrative task like billing and scheduling i will have to use other product alongside it which does not make working with this particular EMR software favourable for me.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I like the fact that Practice Fusion center on clinical data like patient medical records, doses, medication list,e-prescribing, and charting. And it's use in small to medium sized medical settings. Because it's a cloud based EMR opening patient chart on screens loads fairly quickly and running basic task doesn't lag. But if internet connectivity is not strong enough it tend to slow down when loading patient chart.

#### Cons

Its does not focus on administrative operations such as billing and scheduling like other Electronic Medical Records.

Practice Fusion provides some of useful reports ( Patient, Chart notes, Diagnosis Drug interactions, Allergy interaction, e-Prescription per provider, Medication, Patient lists, Referrals, Appointment, Payer, and Activity feed and audit report).

#### Cons

1. Practice Fusion has no billing management feature although it can been integrated with other billing software. 2. There is Payer list problems with payer codes, and custom service staffer don't know how to solver the issues. 3. Practice Fusion don't provide our own account manager, we have to explain our issuers each time when we contact customer service representatives. 4. We don't have any communication channel with up level staffer and technical engineer. So, when we have technical or want to have better features, we are lack of connection with Practice Fusion EHR desire team member. 5. Because Practice Fusion is free, the integration with labs and image centers are limited and slower. 6. Practice Fusion doesn't provide onsite help, and there are no regional help centers. 7. Lack of billing feature is a good issue. The processor of integration is completed and have a lot of issues with billing software companies. 8. Because of the billing issue, there is a problem to meet the cost requirement for MIPS from CMC . 9. There is no upper level help staff available in Practice Fusion Customer service. 10. Practice Fusion only provide limited reports. There are no billing and financial Reports. Such as, daily, monthly, yearly receivable and revenue reports. 11.

### Good product but not built for the needs of Psychologists

I had great customer service. I had great support when needed. I "learned" the onion layers and was able use the EHR initially with little training.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 5/5

#### Pros

Like all EHRs learning the "onion skin layers" to be able to move through the features easily took me awhile. I was repeating often and looking for things since it was not initially intuitive when moving through the EHR. Once I did become familiar with the "layers" I was able to move through the EHR quickly and easily. The Templates were very helpful, especially the ability to share with other users on the EHR.

#### Cons

For me the lack of attention to the specific needs of Psychologists in the EHR as well as the ever increasing price of the EHR caused me to look to other EHR forms. I developed "work arounds" for myself as a Psychologist using the EHR.

The worst part is that they claimed to always be free but then once the company sold, they started to charge. And not only that, when I asked whether I should sign up for a longer term contract, my representative told me (documented in a long email exchange) that I shouldn't and he would know when prices would go up and I would be notified beforehand so I could lock in the current rate. He talked me out of the longer term contract. I have this documented. Now, I received a notice that prices are going up. I have been in communication with a rep at PF [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and sent her copies of the email exchange and she said "I apologize but there is nothing we can do". I asked to speak to a supervisor twice and she has not responded. I just sent my third email. What they could do is honor what was promised to me. I have this exchange in writing! And what horrible customer service-ignoring a request to speak to a supervisor not once but three times. When you sign up with an EMR, it's not an easy proposition to switch. BEWARE OF PF.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 1/5
- Customer support: 1/5
- Functionality: 1/5

#### Pros

Easy to start and use. It was free and I chose it specifically because they advertised that it would "always be free" but that turned out to not be true.

#### Cons

Unable to put in an automatic reminder to patients to book a follow up appointment one year later. Unable to easily download medical records when patients or other physicians request them-you have to download one document at a time. It can take 30 minutes plus to download a chart. Reports are not reliable. Specifically in generating patient lists. Horrible customer service. Do not stand by their word. Refusal to connect me with a supervisor. I have been a customer since 2013 and the customer service has continued to decline despite the cost going up.

#### Reasons for choosing Practice Fusion

Because it was free and advertised that it would always be free. Now that they charge, it is an inferior product.

#### Reasons for switching to Practice Fusion

I was trying to cut costs when I switched to donating all my profits to charity.

### Good value while it was free, now that it will be cpsting per month, per clinician, we will be leaving

It was a good introduction to an EHR for a new and growing practice, when it was free. Now, at the new price point, it is not nearly the same value in comparison to it's competitors who offer integrated billing at the same cost, voice mail reminders, better product support instead of relying mostly on it's user-generated fourums, etc.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 2/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Little lag, reasonably cohesive interface, easy enough to use once you gett over the learning curve.

#### Cons

Poor support which relies on the Practice Fusion community of users to answer questions for each other, no voice mail reminders to patients, difficult to find correct documentation for MIPS and not notified when info changes. When Practice Fusion was bought out this year, they sent an email to their customers, promising continued commitment to them; however, when they decided to change their structure to cost per Doc,, per month, including part-timers, there was no email notification, and no pop up on their site to let people know. I found the notice in an innocuous looking box on their dashboard, that was so plain looking I had missed it for two weeks. Apparently, they are giving their long-term customers only 3 months notice to pay full price for their subscription, or lose their functionality. That's not a lot of lead time to make a decision about an EHR or make a change, especially when they haven't even taken steps to inform most of their customer base. No ramp up, no grandfathering, no communication. No new features for paying for the same free product, and you still have to pay extra for integrated billing. At this price point, my group now has many more options for fully supported, versatile products. Sometimes the way that something is done, says a lot about how a company views their customers.

And be prepared when you realize this hardship is overwhelming and that you cannot prescribe medications to your patients and you decide to stop subscription, you will have extremely difficult time to have them let go, they will claim you have contract and that you are STUCK with them for year.

I was locked out of the system and I could not get a verification code sent to my email. I explained that the phone number attached to my account is no longer in use. I have a new number. After speaking to numerous personnel I was told the only way to be able to change my phone number is to provide a notarized letter with a photo ID, business license etc. I explained that I must know the password to be able to access my account. I am not asking to change that I just need to be able to receive a verification code via email. There was absolutely no resolution to my problem. It fell on deaf ears!!!!!

#### Pros

This software was not very intuitive and not very user friendly.

#### Cons

It was very difficult to customize the patient intake, not meant for a subspecialty practice. Many of the different labs do not contract with practice fusion and therefore the results do not automatically come into the system.

#### Reasons for choosing Practice Fusion

I chose it because they kept saying it was free and would remain free. However, this is not true. They did start charging a monthly fee. However, the customer support services were terrible.

It used to be free. Ability to make your own templates. The E prescribing was simple to use. Easy to enter lab orders and lab result integration was good.

#### Cons

From free to the whole amout annually paid in advance. The price increase has shut out many small solo practices. The cost is for one physician license +3 additional licensed employees. Wouldn't cost be much fairer if the cost was truly per user. I don't want to subsidize larger offices. Horrible customer service since late last year. The templates that are provided are a very low-quality including lots of misspelled words. New spaces for LGBTQ data but nothing for advance care planning and limited space to provide emergency contacts. Not very user-friendly for documenting geriatric patients. No structured section for preventative care with reminders when overdue. Immunization section was not updated routinely: new herpes zoster guidelines. Making a lab result flowsheet was terrible. Everything was à la cart: needed a separate clearinghouse for billing, needed to purchase up docs, etc. Hopefully they'll come up with a different pricing structure. Gone elsewhere for now. Might return if cheaper, charge people for using MIPS separately. Why should I have to pay for all the tech development of features that I don't use when basic items are missing?

Practice Fusion is a free EHR program. You do have to pay for doctor licenses obviously but for a generic EHR, you can't beat it. I like the visual view of the schedule when placed on "WEEK VIEW" and the fact that we have the option to log on when we are not in the office for emergencies.

#### Cons

Practice Fusion is not very user-friendly. It has gotten much better within the last year but it still has a long way to go. My least favorite thing about Practice Fusion is the process of scanning and uploading documents in to a patient's chart. You must scan, name and upload each individual file SEPARATELY. There are times when we have 10+ documents to scan in for a single patient and because of PF's process, we tend to get a little behind on our scanning. I wish there was a way to mass upload or mass name documents.

#### Reasons for choosing Practice Fusion

Free and easy to implement as it is a web-based EHR program.

For our therapists, Practice Fusion has always allowed a highly customizable chart note function. From the billing side, there is room for improving automating charting to superbilling.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Practice Fusion integrates with a handful of billing softwares and generally works fine for EHR functions for a small practice. There are a few buggy things that have not been worked out as they went from a free software to a per provider subscription, but they do seem to continue to add features that help with efficiency and seamless processing of medical transactions.

#### Cons

Little bugs, ie, a date range filter that will not respond to the calendar and so must always be manually typed. To get these annoyances addressed technical support first requires checking internet speed and other hardware factors that are already verified sufficient and have nothing to do with the simple coding issue at hand. Also, superbilling is missing some automation from the chart note to the bill that is found in many other EHRs.

#### Reasons for choosing Practice Fusion

We choose it many years ago because it was free for our new practice. We stayed with it even as our billing softwares added scheduling and charting modules and even as Practice Fusion went to a per provider subscription fee.

Happy with the EMR up to 2017. I don't feel it will meet our needs for QPP reporting.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

This is a free platform for medical offices. There are no hidden charges and it is easy to use. Cloud based, so you don't have to invest in servers. Easily link lab facilities to send and receive orders/results electronically.

#### Cons

I don't feel they are ready for CMS's quality payment program. We are already in June and don't have a dashboard for the Advancing care information (old meaningful use) yet. We need to gauge how we are meeting each measure before the start of the last available reporting period. The Quality measures (eCQM) are only geared towards primary care and we are a specialty with a specialty measure set. I have to connect with a Specialized registry to be able to report quality measure, and the data files are not adequate to download a CCDA file, so I may need to input ALL the data manually to be able to report and to get credit for the bonus points. We may need to switch EMRs if things stay the same.
