4.0

Loni M.: My name is Loni. I'm a licensed therapist and I give DrChrono a four rating. For more like this click here. I use DrChrono on a daily basis for scheduling all of my sessions with my clients and navigating all of their billing and just keeping track of everything that comes along with providing the care for the current clients that I provide service for. I like the ease of being able to schedule and move around clients, also working within each separate client's profile is really easy to access everything that I need and I know exactly where to find different pieces of their file. Something I dislike about DrChrono is I sometimes feel I will click onto something and then save it and come to find out it doesn't always do that for me. That may be a user end issue, but I definitely run into that sometimes, or even maybe the refreshing. But dealing with HIPAA compliant software is that's definitely a common thing that you experience.

Patient Service Coordinator
5.0

Euphrates N.: Hello, I'm Euphrates. I'm the patient service coordinator at PT Solutions/Virginia Hospital Center and I give Epic a 5. I'm a patient service coordinator and Epic provides good services for us because we check patients in and out. We verify their insurances. We can get their referrals from other hospitals through that system. What I like most about EpicCare is everything is in one system. You don't need another system. You only just need Epic. Epic does everything from scheduling to referrals, appointments. It's a one-stop shop. The only room that I see for improvement in Epic is a little faster. Other than that, it's fine.
