Small Practice Ambulatory EHR/PM (1–10 Physicians) 2024
13 September 24
| Alex McIntosh and Chris Clune
Ambulatory care is an ever-evolving landscape, and small practices (1–10 physicians) are increasingly seeking more from their core EHR and PM vendors. With limited IT resources, small practices need vendors who invest in their success by offering robust technology and guidance to streamline administrative tasks, enhance efficiency, and—ultimately—improve patient care. For a market where most vendors don’t meet all small practices’ functionality needs, this report delves into (1) common third-party solution types used to fill functionality gaps within core EHR and PM solutions, (2) capabilities that small practices want their core vendors to develop, and (3) overall customer satisfaction with their vendors.
