TWR Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I went for an interview at a family practice that uses Amazing Charts EMR. Anyone familiar with this one? PS I would be expected to see 30-35 patients per day!!!!! Office hours 8-5 M-F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
entpac Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 That sounds like an excessive number of patients. Is it a 4 day work week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWR Posted April 10, 2022 Author Share Posted April 10, 2022 It's definitely too many patients to be seen in 8 hours. Not a 4 day work week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgriffiths Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Unless you would be filling essentially an urgent care/walk-in clinic role that is FAR too many patients per day - I know you know that. But, even in an urgent care/walk-in clinic that is pushing it unless it's 10-12 hour shifts...even though that has become par for the course. But, I've never even heard of Amazing Charts EMR.

TWR Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 (edited) I have never heard of that EMR either. Also, I had no intention of seeing 35 patients daily. Patient reviews of the practice online bore out all the negatives of such a load. Satisfaction rating was a 2 out of 5. Looking for a good site to check for part time Family medicine PA in Houston, TX. Edited April 11, 2022 by TWR spell check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality Check 2 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 The google search for the EMR was surprisingly positive with good reviews. I had never heard of it but it looks like it might be decent. The concept of that many patients a day is McDonalds Medicine - 'do you want fries with that? please pull thru'. There is zero quality in that kind of quantity. Check out the VA CBOCs (community clinics) or VA in general in the area. See if they need a float provider in Primary Care. A very experienced PA makes a great float provider who can switch gears quickly. VA benefits are amazing. Not a horrible place to work - there is no perfect place. Stay out of McDonalds............. figuratively and literally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
