A patient's "Amazing Chart" is quite similar to their paper chart, and selecting tabs within their chart brings you to the various sections (i.e., demographics, summary sheet, prior visits, imported items, and account information).

We've designed Amazing Charts considering a few critical points that are surprisingly overlooked by most other EHR. First, is that most providers want to see all the patient's information on one page. Whereas most EHRs make you navigate through many windows to get at various information, in Amazing Charts all of the patient's critical information is visible in one place, just as it was when you used a paper chart.

When you pull a patient's chart in Amazing Charts, their last note is displayed, and you use this information as a stepping-off point for the current visit. In this way, the patient chart is a progressive record and you don't have to re-document items that tend to be more static, such as their past medical or family history.

Templates are another major feature that we do differently than other vendors. Many EHR templates require you to essentially build sentences by clicking finding after finding and navigating through menu after menu. This takes an inordinate amount of time and energy and ends up making documenting a note take longer than it would if you were using a paper and pen. Exactly what EHRs are supposed to solve. Other systems, in an attempt to avoid all the clicking, have developed a "documenting by exception" template process whereby you start with a completely normal note, and then click findings that are not normal. While this is an improvement over the painful clicking found in most programmer-designed systems, you end up having all your notes looking essentially the same - which is a recipe for an audit or worse. Amazing Charts templates are designed to both work easily and to minimize the risk that your notes all end up being essentially the same. Simply right-click in any text box in Amazing Charts and your pre-fabricated templates pop open. Click the play button below to see how charting with templates can be both painless and actually provide useful information within a note and not just be a cookie-cutter duplicate that has little, if any, clinical relevancy.
