"I chose Praxis over other systems because of its unique qualities. Those same qualities would make it worth a very hard look as a stockholder in addition to being a user. I feel other Praxis physicians would be also very interested in any such agreement.It would obviously be in participating physcians interests to keep Praxis healthy, growing, and getting better with age.With Praxis thus fortified and improved,a future public offering would be the next logical step to continue to make Praxis stronger and more useful in the delivery of healthcare."
"This is an amazing program that greatly surpasses my expectations. I really found PRAXIS worth it in terms of reduced fatigue and improved quality of records, which is also how I justified it. There have been very few things to come along to make my practice life easier - this is one of them so I grabbed it. The requirements from HCFA (now CMS) are bizarre, elaborate and unnecessary...I see PRAXIS as a way to match the challenge. This is a great program and the commitment of PRAXIS to continually improve it on a short cycle should serve as a model for software development."
"A template program might work for somebody in one specialty who only sees 30 or 40 diagnoses, but in family practice we see hundreds of diagnoses. I can't even imagine another program that could come near to Praxis in terms of its flexibility."
"Glad to hear you are looking into Praxis EMR! I can only say great things about the Praxis Program and the personnel. I went through a number of EHR programs and nothing met my needs like Praxis EMR. The program is the absolute best at tailoring notes to your practice; Praxis notes very easy to modify or add to. I have tailored my chart note in order of how I document/to my flow of treatment. Other programs required me to contact the programmer or vendor and have them modify the note for me--this took a couple days for them to get to it. Praxis makes it easy to set up a note and make sure I document everything I see-and allow me to free-type anything I need to add. I could go on and on. But I think you want the bullet point version. I know I like the nuts and bolts of things."
"While several other systems provide for such things as accurate and legible recording of notes and prescriptions, it is the flexibility and theory behind PRAXIS that will, in the long run, provide the best legal protection for the practicing physician."
"Another...which makes Praxis v3 the absolute best out there. From the hospital (or anywhere with internet) I can access my office Praxis program. I call up my Admitting Note assessment, pick a subgroup (suffix) and print the note to the hospital printer. If I had a fax modem set up and designated as a printer I could print to the fax modem at the office and have the pages faxed to me or anywhere I choose. I can use the internet connection with Praxis while doing the new visit... takes all of about 2 minutes to do this generally."
"When I first saw Praxis…I was happily surprised to see a system work a lot like I already practiced… We had a lot of technical problems with the other system we had been using, which can be a catastrophe for a paperless office!"
"All my requirements were met with PRAXIS. PRAXIS will allow (us) more time to be doctors, instead of writers of medical paperwork who also see patients."
"I'm writing a short paper and presenting it to OHSU Rural Health faculty and students on Fri., 3/17. My paper is tentatively titled "Transforming Rural Primary Care: Electronic Medical Records (EMR) in Coos Bay, Oregon." I plan to review the literature on transitioning to EMR, and to focus on how it's going for Bay Clinic using Praxis."
"As the Chief of a very busy Urgent Care Center, I had been actively looking for an electronic medical record system ... I was immediately impressed (with PRAXIS). It is such an easy program to learn, even my most computer illiterate physicians should not have any problem. The Urgent Care physicians are convinced that the PRAXIS program will decrease their medical risks by vastly improving their documentation.... Keep up the good work!"
"It is outstanding, and easy to use. The beauty of the program is that it can document so much better than we can ever dictate or write and all is included for review. The concept engine is brilliant and VERY easy to use."
"You have created a revolutionary and inexpensive computer charting system that could become the universal standard. Anyone with a serious interest in practicing high quality medicine and an interest in computers needs to look at PRAXIS. There is nothing else that even comes close. It is the best system that I have found for medical practice note-keeping because it is far superior to any of the 'template' systems and has superb flexibility characteristics. I have recommended (PRAXIS) to many physicians. It is a program that any physician with a modicum of computer literacy would see as the answer to his practice needs. You are limited only by your imagination, intelligence and time as to what you can do with PRAXIS. When you get into PRAXIS you will love it. Using it is 'addictive'. When you realize how much you can do to generate a superb medical record and be reminded of all of the details that are so important to quality medical practice with speed and documentation for the snoopers, you will be glad you got involved."
