Complete confidence in clinical records.

Pros

I like the templates themselves that guide the clinician through assessments and treatment planning. I like the ability to modify treatment plans and assessments as treatment progresses without starting over. After experiencing an audit without it and another audit with it, it gives me confidence in our records system.

Cons

I find it time consuming to modify or personalize reports templates; perhaps I just haven't taken the time to explore the tutorials. And I wish it were easier to move between computers.

I am a solo mental health practitioner in a health clinic. I used to have to hand write all my treatment plans which was very time-consuming, especially as busy as I am being the only mental health provider. With Therascribe, it has saved me so much time. TheraScribe customer support is super responsive, always heard back when I've emailed with tech questions within the hour. I love TheraScribe and would recommend to any therapist!

Pros

It has made my treatment planning SO easy. It is super user friendly and has saved me so much time by having the templates for each diagnosis.

Cons

I wish I could add in my own interventions/goals

Pros

I enjoy the drop down boxes as well as the DSM 5 codes which make it very simple. I also like the multiple choices that are available.

Cons

I do not like that there is no hardcopy handbook and customer support agent is unhelpful. Customer support agent has an attitude that is unwelcoming.

ease of compliance with managed care record keeping requirements

Pros

I like the easy navigation, the various modules so that treatment plans fit the population I serve. I also like the HIPAA log that requests and logs information about every printed record. This is an optional feature, and takes a few minutes to fill out, but assures compliance with HIPAA requirements for release of records.

Cons

I would like to see it more compatible with Medical Records for integrating behavioral health into Primary Care.

Pros

Ease of use. User friendly. I can do a treatment plan in minutes and a progress note quickly. I love being able to have a pre-made treatment plan for a certain diagnosis and with the push of a button I have a plan made for a new client with only having to make minor changes (if any at all).

Cons

I have had struggles with using the software on two computers and having them interface with each other. The software can be expensive at first but I find the time saved well worth the cost.

All my records are easy to access. I can chose how to print my records and I can rate how a client is doing on various objectives easily.

Pros

I like the options for treatment planning. I like that aside from the Biopsychosocial feature, there is an area for me to write an assessment and add to the information provided.

Cons

I would like to be able to add information about the doctor on the personal information page, as well as additional fields for multiple e-mail addresses or phone numbers.

I have a valuable tool to track patients' progress. I can rely on it to help me in my record keeping.

Pros

The treatment plans are well written and organized and offer a good variety of explanations and treatment tools that can be used. I like the compatibility with Helper Software.

Cons

There are a variety of formats available for creating reports. Sometimes they can be confusing to understand what they will do when choosing the various options to create the reports.

I think the most important benefit is that it keeps me organized and helps me to focus on treatment options that I might not otherwise think of.

Pros

It doesn't require a lot of technical expertise. Everything is common sense and straight forward. It has helped me become a lot more organized with my assessments and treatment plans.

Cons

I have noticed that I don't catch spelling/typing errors easily on it so I wish it had an auto-correct spelling feature.

Pros

Over many years, and numerous version releases we have enjoyed the familiarity and the reliability. It is nice to not be required to "rip out and replace" every time a major release is installed. We have been able to continue work as usual, and just move on. I know that I have received excellent customer support with any questions or concerns, and I appreciate that. I feel like I am a valued customer.

Secure case notes.

Pros

It is easy to write case notes, and enter in the session details. It appears to be secure. Customer service is mostly helpful.

Cons

Having to create treatment plans and enter in diagnostic information. I don't know if there is a glitch in my software or what. If I want to create a treatment plan for a client I have to enter in everything, including the DSM V codes.
