Darrin, what made you go with MedFlow?

We used to run NextGen for EMR & EPM, and quickly came to realize that their 
built in image system was horrendous. the effects on performance were 
exponential compared to the amount of data that was added, and the reviewing 
applications were lackluster.

In the end, after 4 years with NextGen, we decided to switch, and decided to 
run with a PACS system in addition to our EMR, rather than utilizing the less 
than optimal built-in solutions we were seeing in demos.

2.5 TB of images into our PACS, and we are very happy with our decision. We've 
got direct integration of the EMR and PACS, clinical and research use have 
become very fluid, and can be accomplished on tablets or desktop computers. It 
has been a long time in coming towards the final solution, but i think 4 out of 
5 days a week (and increasing) we are completely convinced this is where we 
want to be for the future.

Ok, finally jumping on the EMR train, and getting MedFlow in our office.

Anyone out there using it- how is it from a photographer's standpoint? Pros vs. 
Cons?

sorry if I open a can of worms....



Thanks
