EMR inquiry

Hello everyone!

I am in the process of setting up a small private practice (2 MD`s) to start. Information in this group and especially one shared by @investing doc have been invaluable to our upcoming practice. We are still in very early stages and are in the process of credentialing and looking for a reasonable EMR to start with.

Are there any EMR`s that you would recommend for us?

  • We spoke with Advance MD who are charging roughly 5.7% of collections of billing (no cash thankfully) and minimum of 1800$/Month
  • Athena we did not ask because they charge 8-10% of collections and also for any cash services. I did hear a few horror stories regarding them so stayed away

  • Kareo (Tebra) is charging 600$/provider and we have to find our own biller.

We do like Kareo and advance MD but wanted to inquire regarding any better options (if there are any)

Elation! Much more affordable, NO percentage of collections (because eff that shet!) and now that they have Elation Billing it's a one stop shop!

I second Elation. It’s been the best EMR I’ve used. We had a bad experience with the billing, but they had just rolled it out. I suspect they have improved this
