If you’re a therapist looking to upgrade your practice’s efficiency and improve patients’ healthcare quality, then you need to choose the right EHR for your needs. During the selection process, list your top priorities and needs. This will help the account executive show you how your goals can be met with the EHR. Choosing the right system can ensure you save time and money.
Customizable Forms Customizable Forms are one of the top features to look for when choosing a therapist EHR. They make it easier to create intake forms and progress notes. For example, if you want to know your client’s age or occupation, you can add fields for those details. Or, you can set up conditions, so the system will pre-determine which questions to show based on your client’s answers. You can create a customized form that meets your practice’s and client’s needs using these conditions.
Patient Portal Patient portals provide patients with secure and convenient online access to their health records, lab results, medication refills, and more. They can also communicate with their care providers in real-time, allowing them to schedule appointments or send automatic reminders for upcoming visits. Many of these features can improve a patient’s overall healthcare experience. For example, a portal with telemedicine tools can help physicians check if patients are experiencing drug-to-drug or drug-to-allergy interactions based on their current medications and diagnoses. However, choosing a patient portal that’s easy to use and has the functionality your practice needs is essential. This will help you save time and effort in the long run.
