The enhanced features for research in this system (e.g. the ability to get to records from other agencies which wok with EPIC) are the reason why we’re continuously using it. Regarding research, invoicing and compliance, this software has been of great help.

Some research aspects are non-intuitive. Picking up a few back end reporting systems takes time due to the learning curve present.

Epic Care has a relevant interface suited for the clinical environment and a set up that is rather simple with the new layout with tab sections for the clinician. It coordinates the work and keeps continuity in the facility. Also, it helps to find out how much work still needs to be completed. It is also an important development that our institution is employing a new version which would create a flawless evenness between outpatient and inpatient.

There are no cons as such but a suggestion that EPIC should develop new ways that clinicians can come out with that would help them showcase their own unique skills based on their specialty. It may look difficult in the beginning. But, this way there will be an improvement in clinical efficiency.

General comments: Access to the e-MDs chart is awesome.

Rescheduling appointments is easy and fast. The lab test results can be observed through it. Accessing all my records is also conveniently simple.

The updates are not frequent so it seems a bit outdated.

Extremely terrible encounter with this software.

When it is functioning well, the software is great.

Client service is terrible. Dishonest sales staff and company. It disconnects you, freezes, and runs slowly very often.
