In today's Partner Spotlight, Dr. Alex Foxman shares about his experience with DrChrono by EverHealth.
As we approach 2025, more physicians are considering the shift to Direct Primary Care (DPC) for its unique benefits. DPC empowers doctors with greater autonomy and allows patients to enjoy more direct, personalized care through a simple membership model.
Dr. Foxman points out that having control over both professional and personal aspects of one's practice enhances patient care and allows physicians to truly customize their services. That’s why selecting a flexible, all-in-one EHR, like DrChrono, is crucial. DrChrono supports physicians today and adapts with them for future needs, making it an ideal choice for those entering DPC.
Dr. Foxman’s Transition to DrChrono
Dr. Foxman shared his journey of transitioning from an EHR he found to be costly and cumbersome to the more efficient and mobile DrChrono. His decision was driven by the need to update outdated servers due to security vulnerabilities and the desire for a cost-effective solution. After extensive research and testing, he chose DrChrono for its cloud-based capabilities, open API for future integrations, and overall alignment with his practice's diverse requirements.
This transition has been particularly beneficial for Dr. Foxman’s multiple practice types, including his primary care practice (Beverly Hills Institute), mobile medical practice (Mobile Physician Associates), and national virtual weight loss program (Achieve Health and Weight Loss). The adaptability of DrChrono has allowed him to customize workflows to suit the distinct needs of each of his office-based, mobile, and virtual practices.
Evaluating DrChrono as an EMR/EHR
For physicians considering a switch to a new EHR system, Dr. Foxman offered valuable insights into what features to assess. Key factors include workflow compatibility, ease of use, efficiency, mobility, and customizability. These considerations ensure that the chosen system will seamlessly integrate into the practice, enhancing rather than hindering day-to-day operations.
One of the compelling features of DrChrono is its flexibility and customizability. The system allows physicians to develop and share forms and templates within a physician sharing network, and even create custom forms without requiring programming skills. These aspects make DrChrono adaptable to the unique needs of various medical practices.
AI Integration: The Future of EMRs
Dr. Foxman highlighted the remarkable progress being made in AI integration within healthcare systems, noting that traditional EMR systems required extensive manual data entry and labeling. This cumbersome process often detracted from the quality time doctors could spend with their patients.
The advent of AI, however, is set to revolutionize this landscape. EHR systems like DrChrono are poised to incorporate AI-driven capabilities that automate data scraping and analysis, significantly reducing the administrative burden on healthcare as a whole. Dr. Foxman predicted that within a year, DrChrono will see significant AI integration, enhancing its functionality and efficiency.
Choosing an EHR With The Future of Healthcare In Mind
The advancements discussed underscore the potential for progressive EHR systems like DrChrono to revolutionize healthcare delivery, helping a DPC practice be more efficient, personalized, and ultimately beneficial for both patients and clinicians. By embracing these technological breakthroughs, DPC clinicians can continue focusing on a healthcare future where quality patient care and efficient practice management go hand in hand.
