Epic offers a suite of medical practice management and EHR software.
AMS360 is a solid platform to run an insurance agency. Their support during issues is stellar. Our issues came only after we said we needed to pivot a different direction, then everything went to pot.
I think AMS360 is more user-friendly and has many options that are time savers if you learn to use them. Integration with the companies is significant for me as well. They seem to be on the front end of technology and integration with companies like Bridge and Agency …
We acquire agencies with a long list of different management systems; after vetting the systems we currently utilize within our agencies, AMS360 came out on top as the most inclusive program set. Vertafore products are really rounding out their set of systems that really create …
We have considered other platforms from time to time but have felt comfortable staying with AMS360. New users appear to understand AMS360 quickly and customize it to their personal preferences. Older users, generally reluctant to changes, are more receptive to updates as they …
Both systems are similar in terms of management capabilities. We went with AMS360 as it better fit my group as a whole. I do think that reports were much more easily run in Applied than AMS360. I hadn't used Applied for accounting, but it seems the AMS360 is a little cumbersome …
I have used HawkSoft for over 8 years, so we know their system like the back of my hand. I have been using AMS360 for over 6 months, so it's really not fair to compare both at this level of knowledge of AMS360. It's still a learning curve with AMS360. So far when we compare …
Epic gives extensive customization options in terms of utility and view. I have found this to be highly useful and efficient EHR as compared to other EHRs we use in our organization.
Epic has more features and seems to be used by most hospital systems, which means information can be shared between systems. It is not compatible with Cerner, McKesson, or any other of the less commonly used products and we cannot view information from such facilities. I …
Epic has extensive features, options, customization and is truly a robust EMR software. As a user I can tell there has been much thought and effort into creating this software and they are constantly updating the technology to keep it user friendly. Epic can do more than any …
All of the EHR's I have worked with are strong in their own right, however, Epic really shines in an Enterprise level situation. Most EHR's are specific to one context, like hospital, lab, or clinic. Epic has a great deal of strength in unifying all of these different contexts …
If you use PL Rating, AMS360 is highly recommended due to their seamless integration. Also, if you are looking for a system to use on the cloud, it is best. But if you are an offline user, then maybe it's not for you.
Epic is very good on the medical side and continues improving mental health and dental care. Having integrated telehealth via Zoom was a game-changer. During COVID, it was vital to have telehealth options and to ensure it was completely HIPAA Compliant and easy to document inside their health record.
This is by far the most robust agency management system I have used that works for all sizes of agencies. Others have better options here or there, but they are highly customized for a specific type of agency. AMS360 is a one size fits all type of solution, and it works well for us.
My organization has been using the Epic platform for 10 years and counting! Epic has continuously improved and updated the system to align with current best practices and meet the needs of members and their patients. As an FQHC, we provide medical, dental, and mental health services, and it is essential to have access to all the patients' health information in one place. Integrating Care Everywhere and Telehealth options embedded directly in the EHR has greatly improved our ability to take the best care of each patient who walks through our doors.
A dedicated support staff for each module/area is provided by Epic. This is beneficial for points of contact, however, not all support staff are created equal, and there seems to be high turnover in these roles(staff seems to turn over every 1-2 years). This can make it challenging for continuity and quick support resolution as new staff are not as familiar with organization-specific needs, environments, and/or questions.
We have considered other platforms from time to time but have felt comfortable staying with AMS360. New users appear to understand AMS360 quickly and customize it to their personal preferences. Older users, generally reluctant to changes, are more receptive to updates as they come up since transitions have been easily understandable .
Epic has more features and seems to be used by most hospital systems, which means information can be shared between systems. It is not compatible with Cerner, McKesson, or any other of the less commonly used products and we cannot view information from such facilities. I believe Epic has the most features. It automatically saves entries, unlike Quadrimed, for example, which does not save and if you accidentally get logged out you lose your information.
Improved Customer Satisfaction: After the initial implementation phase, I have seen increases in patient satisfaction. This is due to the increased transparency regarding their care as well as an increase in paid claims.
Increased Revenue: In some cases I have seen Medicare denial rates drop from high 80's and 90's down to single digits. I have seen incredible jumps in the time payment is received from an approved claim.
