The EHR vendor field is crowded and it's constantly changing. I know this first hand. We are in the process of implementing a massive new EHR project. Consider this horrible scenario. You spend three months selecting a new EHR system and another three months implementing and training. Your office staff get accustomed to it. Then you learn that the software vendor has gone out of business. No more support, no new upgrades, and no delivery of that additional module they promised would be available soon.
Or let’s say the vendor doesn’t go out of business, but they get acquired by another company. In this case the acquiring vendor informs you that they will “sunset” the product and cease support within two years. It’s not as bad, but it still means that you will have to start all over again soon. You can greatly increase your chances of avoiding these situations if you take the time to assess each vendor’s financial and strategic viability during your software selection process.
The Happy Hospitalist has teamed up with the experts at Software Advice to bring you the resources you need to find the right EHR product for your practice environment.
