Vision Software
Netsmart Vision is an electronic medical records (EMR) solution for long-term care facilities that includes clinical, financial and marketing applications. Founded in 1999, the company serves clients that provide various forms of care, including skilled nursing, independent living, post-acute, home health and hospice organizations.
This software’s clinical capabilities document the patient health assessment process, and automatically generate care plan activities based on individual conditions. Netsmart Vision assigns an “alerts” tab to each patient so that important information—such as the delivery of high-risk medication—is tracked to assure safety.
Patient records are integrated with the software’s financial features, reducing duplicate data entry. Minimum Data Set (MDS) modules allow users to track and monitor activities that may impact Medicaid/Medicare reimbursements.
Netsmart Vision provides a referral management tool that assigns leads and inquiries to sales team members. An iPad app is also available for physicians to view patient records and communicate with staff.

Vision needs some TLC
Pros
Easy to set-up electronic medical records and MDS module to track and Hover MediCare/Caid reimbursements
Cons
Lack of customer care support, sorting out custom data, and non-friendly software If staff is not trained proper.

Don’t bother
Customer service has virtually ignored complaints or has helped us with system fixes.
Cons
Difficult to place orders. Too many steps. No pros. Not efficient. EVERYTHING was so much more efficient with our old paper charts. ALL ASPECTS OF ORDER WRITING AND DOCUMENTING TAKES THREE TIMES LONGER THAN WITH PAPER CHART

Post Acute Care Vision EHR
Pros
Vision has workflows that assist us in being more efficient and making sure nothing gets missed. The home screen is set up to help us get to where we need to be quickly, with less clicks. With multiple locations and care settings, having just one electronic record, under one organization structure has been a huge help. Our residents and clients flow seamlessly across our different care settings without redundant data entry or documentation.
Cons
If not trained properly, Vision can seem cumbersome and difficult. But in reality it is very user friendly.

Vison software
I would definitely recommend vision to other companies that is struggling with their electronic software.
Pros
The product is the smartest product I've ever tested out there in the market. We are in the beginning of phase I kick off and we already seeing a good progress and so far we are liking every thing they are showing us. The customization itself is awesome!

They are open towards interoperability which is a great step forward on getting LTPAC settings to help hospital stay compliant with Meaningful use. Health MedX is currently working with a local HIE in the State of Oklahoma to connect with the 7 largest health systems in the state.
Likes Least
There are cheaper options out there, Like Point Click Care
Recommendations
Look towards an LTPAC EHR that is willing to connect with the federal requirements that Acute Care settings are forced to meet, we all share the same patients we need to be in the same page.

The attraction to Vision is it's flexibility, but the forms building and customization is extremely challenging and clunky. Vision is cumbersome, it is difficult to use with Assisted Living even though it is advertised. It is expensive. The most frustrating part of Vision is that it was very hard to get meaningful data out of it. Easy to put data in hard to get flexible data out. I do not know what the ideal solution is, but I know it is not Vision
Pros
It is flexable
Cons
It is extremely challenging to get useful custom queries. For example getting a list of residents, room number and phone number was an issue. And that is just the beginning. Other concerns are cost of training, cost of implementation, quality of training.
Advice to Others
Unless they have overhauled the product, stay away.

ive used this program while working as an MDS resource for Avalon and Deseret. Pros, it is a nice looking interface. If you want to do a comprehensive care plan hmx gives you that flexibility. Cons HMX is not intuitive and there are a lot of rabbit holes to get lost in. Customer support it is not very friendly or knowledgeable. We ended up spending a lot more money on overtime to make hmx work than it would have costed to convert do something decent like Matrix or PCC
