Practice Fusion introduces paid package for their EMR 2017/2018

Posted on by KR2Medical Billing

At the beginning of this year, Allscipts bought Practice Fusion EMR.

It’s been a long road but in the last 3 years, Practice Fusion has become the most customer friendly EMR on the market-  with over  75% of customer satisfaction. In the last year it has become certified EMR that could be used for PCMH Certification,  MIPS (Medicare QCDR registry), and Meaningful Use.

Of course the BEST thing that made Practice Fusion so attractive as an EMR, is that it was for FREE and therefore very affordable for the solo and small practices.

However,  starting in May 2017, Practice Fusion will cost you $99 per provider, per license. Yes, that is the new price!

Now you can still access the PF FREE version, but with LIMITED options.

Now its your turn: if your office is using Practice Fusion EMR , are you planning on switching to another or are you keeping it?

Recent Practice Fusion update and ECQM BP documentation and Follow UP.

Posted on by KR2Medical Billing

Have you looked at your MU2/3 dashboard in Practice Fusion and noticed that the percentage or # of patients for the ECQM measure: Preventative care screening: for High Bloodpressure and floww up documented; is zero?

Don’t panic! On Oct 26th, 2017 Practice Fusion updated their EMR and the dashboard so it affected this ECQM.

According, to PF reps, this has been reported by at least 9 other providers and is being addressed.

Taking in consideration that your office and you, have been following the suggested workflow to capture this measure, in PF EMR, you should continue this process until the issue will be resolved and you start seeing the # and percentage for the measure again.

Now it’s your turn: have you seen any other ECQM measure being affected by the October update?

UPDATE: 12/19/2017- the issue has been resolved. Your MU dashboard should show you the correct percentage now.
