Specialist-Centric Systems Lead Small Physician Practice EHR Satisfaction, Black Book Survey

TAMPA, Fla., April 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Black Book Research announced the top ambulatory EHR rankings as collected from 18,950 physician practices in client experience and satisfaction. Three hundred and forty EHR products received customer evaluations and seven vendors notably seized multiple medical or surgical specialist top ratings from the polling conducted from Q3 2017 to Q1 2018. Black Book measures customer satisfaction and loyalty based on 18 key performance indicators.

AdvancedMD, drchrono, Epic Systems, NextGen, NetSmart, Modernizing Medicine and SIS Amkai each delivered products in multiple specialist EHR categories with the highest physician practice satisfaction scores.

"Single-solution offerings integrating electronic health records, revenue cycle management, coding and practice management tools are on track to maintain the foothold among specialty practices in 2018," said Doug Brown, managing partner of Black Book Research.

"It's clear that even in this tightening and increasingly complex ambulatory EHR market, specialist-centric vendors that innovate through integrated EHR, RCM, Coding and PM tools are continuing to lead the small specialist practice market," said Brown. "By providing a product that is a vital part of the users' workflow, patient coordination and critical digital capabilities, independent and network-affiliated physicians can be successful in the value-based care environment through these systems."

The ambulatory EHR market is projected to reach $5 billion by 2020.
