Hi, I am interested in NexGen as well-- When I was searching for information on this---I found the chemorders.com pop upl Looks like a group called Georgia Oncology Associates uses NexGen and added its additional software. Also I believe Intellidos…

I suspect that 110k is the "all up" cost, including software and hardware acquisition, employee training, etc. There are of course ongoing costs associated with EMR, but the most important is loss of productivity. At the most recent EMR presentation…

Is anyone using NexGen as an EMR and do they have an oncology module? We may have an opportunity to get access to NexGen through one of our client medical groups. How well does it work?

I know a lot of work has been done to improve usability but difficulties arise from the fundamental purpose of an EHR, which is to produce a document, It is not to produce healthcare. So EHR's are engineered for smooth, easy production of documents,…

Oh, yeah. This is a very common complaint, but as Doug says, it is merely an update of the old complaint, "he never looks at me, just riffles through the chart while I'm talking". Good manners just must be updated for technology changes, as in the n…

Please tell us a little about your experience with EHRs. Are you learning, implementing, or a current EHR user? How can the Oncology EHR Social Network help you? Detailed answers usually get quicker membership approvals.
Our major hospitals have implemented EPIC over the last year and we are getting grudging familiarity and facility with it. We currently run a few functions in the office from ASP type programs, but everything else is a paper chart.
