THE COST OF AN EMR

Many contend that small practices aren't prepared, financially or organizationally, for an EMR.

What is the cost? There's a wide range of estimates, depending on whom you ask. The initial cost of an EMR is cost at somewhere between $15,000 and $30,000 per physician, and an extra 15 to 18 percent of the software cost for annual maintenance and updates. The total cost is $1,500 to $2,000 per doctor per month on an ongoing basis.

One way being touted to reduce EMR costs is to use an application service provider. www.ezmedicaloffice.com is an ASP. The ASP model eliminates the need for a practice to buy pricey EMR software. It also ends the hassles involved with purchasing and installing upgrades, and the need for on-site information technology specialists. ASP systems are also easier to learn. ASPs host EMR programs and clinical databases on a remote server and serve them to doctors online. The monthly software-and-maintenance fee will range from $150 to $800 per doctor.
