Breanne W
CEO
5.0

Breanne: My name is Breanne. I'm CEO of ForWard Consulting, LLC in Des Moines, Iowa and I give KASA Solutions a rating 5. KASA is used in our company as the electronic EHR, electronic records for our therapy practice. It helps us comply with HIPAA and keep our clients' profiles together. I love the ease of using KASA. It's simple. It has a help desk. Also has step-by-step instructions if you get stuck or need to know what to do within some of the pages of KASA. I dislike a current change they just made. We no longer have a billing specialist. But we have a team approach email helpline and that is an issue that I'm learning how to overcome. But it's a struggle.

Tammy E
Executive Director
5.0

Tammy E.: My name is Tammy. I am the Executive Director of Legends Treatment Center in Pittsburgh. We have about 200 people that work for Legends, all of the Legends put together. My rating for Kipu is five. We use Kipu for pretty much everything when it comes to our client base for our outpatient. We use Kipu for our notes. Billing is able to go in and check on our notes to see who has come, who hasn't. I go in and I do audit checks. I sign off on notes. We use Kipu a lot. Our inpatient, we can tell where a person is, what floor, what room, if there's an emergency. We use it to communicate back and forth between staff. Kipu is easy to use. When I started this position, I didn't really have anyone to train. I've used a lot of different EMR systems in my career, and Kipu is literally the absolute easiest EMR to use when it comes to using it for client base. There is no negative about Kipu. I like everything about it.
