To encourage medical providers to use electronic health record (EHR) systems, the U.S. government has linked their use to Medicare reimbursement, with penalties taking effect in 2024 for providers not using the technology. But avoiding penalties is not the most compelling reason to use an EHR. The greatest benefits of EHR systems are an improved patient experience and a more profitable practice.

The technology behind electronic health records has come a long way since the systems became mainstream back in 2009. As your practice grows and changes, you might find your EHR struggling to keep up. Or maybe you’ve been dealing with an EHR that never really met your needs. If you settled years ago for a “good enough” EHR, it’s time to take a fresh look at migrating to a system that will grow with you as your practice evolves.

Patient education isn’t just about setting realistic expectations. It’s also a competitive advantage that sets you apart and keeps people coming back and referring their friends. Recorded live at AAD in San Diego, Robin Ntoh and Tyler Terry explore the importance of patient education for differentiating your aesthetic practice from competitors. Hear how you can uplevel your patient education game and demonstrate to patients that you’re invested in their experience from beginning to end.

Hear how Nextech and Dr. Schlessinger evolved together over the years, from practice management to EMR and why he credits Nextech with saving his practice during the COVID-19 pandemic.

EHR mandates became law in 2016, with enforcement penalties starting in 2024. This may feel like a new requirement, but it’s been 15 years in the making.

The right EHR is your fast pass to an efficient, scalable practice that delivers outstanding, engaging patient care. Since the U.S. government’s EHR mandate was passed in 2016, there’s been a proliferation of tools on the market. Unfortunately, not every tool serves every kind of practice equally well. The wrong EHR can be frustrating and difficult to use, defeating the entire purpose. Avoid frustration by carefully assessing your options and choosing the right system for your needs.
