Our Clients Say . . .

AMS clients tell us that the peace of mind they enjoy from relying on our easy-to-use software and unrivaled support services is the main reason they recommend it to others!

“I have been very pleased to be using the latest version of your software. The software program has several features which are especially important to primary care physicians. Most notable is the growth charts and BMI calculator. Another very important feature is the vaccination record. I believe the most important resource of your company is your technical support staff. I did not grow up around computers. Your support staff has always been patient and took the time to explain issues to me in language I could understand. I believe no matter what the level of sophistication of the user, this is an important.”
Glen Belkin, DO, FAAP, Senior Partner, Croton Pediatrics

“We have used American Medical Software since opening in 1997. AMS remains in the forefront as the medical industry demands changes to electronic technology. All modules are stable and fully integrated, allowing cross-referencing and tracking of charges to office visits simple. Appointments also cross-reference to medical records. We can easily keep track of accounts receivables and easily resubmit insurance claims, electronically or by paper. The software support department is great. They prove to be well trained and very helpful. I do highly recommend AMS to any provider seeking to improve their office.”
Marcy Salem, Office Manager, Illinois, Family Practice

“I have been using American Medical Software’s complete EMR, Billing and Scheduling modules in my practice since 2002. I chose AMS after many months of reviewing numerous products. In the end I chose AMS because it provided everything I needed for my surgery practice, at a reasonable cost. The company is committed to constantly improving their products, and is more than willing to listen to and incorporate their customer’s suggestions. The software has performed without any problems for us for over five years. In addition, the technical support is very helpful and reliable and I recommend including the unlimited technical support option as part of a purchase of this product. AMS software has allowed me to move into the electronic medical record age years before most of my colleagues. To anyone considering making the change from paper to electronic, I strongly recommend making the change, and considering AMS as your EMR vendor.”
P. Kurt Bamberger, M.D., Pennsylvania, General Surgery

“We have used American Medical Software for the past 12 years and each year it gets better and better. Your Software facilitates our practice in more ways than one. First, billing is easier due to the addition of being able to input eight diagnosis codes and then choose the appropriate one that is related to the procedure. Next, physicians and staff can utilize the new Electronic Prescribing Module with ease. Finally, the ability to attach hyperlinks in the diagnosis master and the e-mail enhancement in patient inquiries is very practical. Year after year, you integrate new requirements, such as the new NPI condition, while maintaining a user friendly atmosphere. You respond quickly to our needs, efficiently and effectively. .”
Kimberly A. McCarthy, Billing, Illinois, Nephrology

“Our office has been a client of AMS since 1989.  The Practice Management System is very user friendly with excellent interfaces.  Scheduling is a breeze with color coding and the ability to customize the schedule. We have been using EMR since 1999 or 2000 and have been paperless since March 2001.  Each patient room is equipped with a laptop computer and the entire office visit is complete by the time the patient leaves the exam room.  We especially love the templates and reminders.  We also fax 75 % of our patient's prescriptions straight to the pharmacy.  We never have a problem with the pharmacy understanding what has been prescribed. We appreciate the fact that AMS updates the system frequently, making our jobs easier.
L. Chafin, Office Manager, Oklahoma, Internal Medicine

  

"We have a multi-physician practice with multiple locations. This system will work as well as the more expensive systems I have used in the past which can cost ten times as much. Private lessons on the internet at the beginning were very helpful. Setup for electronic statements and billing is easy. Our claim rejections are 1% sending to the clearinghouse. I use a VPN from my home and the software works very well. At the most it may take a few extra seconds to log-in. Other than that it is like being in the office."
J. Assef, Office Manager, Kentucky, Pain Management

"Quite simply, AMS represents the total practice management automation solution. We have been an AMS client for several years and are as happy with their user-friendly system today as we ever have been! They provided us with top-notch training and continue to provide superior ongoing support and service. AMS is truly a solid, reliable source of practice automation."
Dr. J. Grange, Nebraska, General Surgery

"After 16 years of Medical billing and management, with the last 7 years on American Medical Software, you learn the positive aspects of the AMS Billing System are instrumental in a successful business. The reports are designed for your every need, the program is adaptable for more than just a clinic setting and the Electronic Medical Records is an incredible setup designed for maximum time and paper saving ability. "
R. Martin, Mississippi, Nursing Services

"In the Electronic Patient Chart, the ability to use conditional and key phrases makes modifying templates to suit the individual patients so quick and easy. The "F9" key has become my favorite key on the computer. It will turn a few letters into complete sentences with a single keystroke. The ability to run a template from within a template with a double click has given us the ability to use table computers which are much less distracting for patients and have saved us the expense of having to put a workstation in every exam room…. Not to mention the significant savings in transcription expenses."
Dr. J. MacMillan, Kansas, Orthopaedic Medicine

"AMS is easy to use and dependable. We like the simplicity of the AMS software as it is easy to teach and understand. Your system offers everything that is important to our office and with its use, we run a virtually paper-free office. Your support staff is very easy to work with and knowledgeable about the software. Your ability to help us perfect the system to our needs is outstanding."
Dr. A. Ajayi, Florida, Pediatric Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders

"We cannot express to you how much this software has enhanced our practice and made record keeping and processing claims so much easier. And the technical support team is always available and ready to answer any question."
J. Green, Office Manager, Alabama, Child, Adolescent and Adult Psychiatry

"I have been using AMS Practice Management Software along with its additional modules for many years now. Even with the new features, the products continue to be user friendly. Remote sites have excellent, reliable and easy access. AMS technical staff remains the most courteous and efficient that I have dealt with. EDI is extremely reliable and easy. AMS' upgrades and new versions remain ahead of the ever-changing rules and regulations. From my staff and myself, who use the product every day, thank you for keeping up and making our jobs a little easier."
M. Kilpatrick, Administrator, Nevada, Medical Billing Co.

"My favorite feature of AMS is prescription writing. With a few clicks of the mouse, we not only have previous prescription information about the patient at our fingertips, but pharmacy telephone numbers, last date the prescription was refilled, and the correct medications and dosages. We do not have to pull charts and there is no margin for error. It makes these patient care issues worry free."
G. Weiken, Office Staff, Kansas, Orthopaedic Medicine

"As my practice has grown from solo to practicing with a physician assistant, American Medical Software has grown with us. Over the past 7 years as our needs and laws changed, AMS has been responsive. They have remained dynamic, but stable, despite technological changes of the last few years. We heavily use every module of AMS. My office manager, who is also my wife, is able to watch our receivables closely with AMS. In a time of many failing solo practices, the ability to adequately monitor our receivables has made a positive impact on my business. She feels that the tech support is outstanding and the program is easy to use. We would highly recommend this software to everyone."
Dr. A. Salem, Illinois, Family Practice

"We purchased the complete American Medical Software system including EMR. We are very pleased with the new system and find it very user friendly. We cannot express the importance of support when you need it, and that is what we have with AMS. They help you solve any problem or print reports, etc., on the first call. We do not have to wait for a call back. The staff is always friendly, knowledgeable and eager to help.

We recently had our Risk Management Insurance representative out to view our patient records for HIPAA compliance. She said, "I am very impressed". She loved our system and the information that it made available at the drop of a hat."
J. Recek, Office Manager, Nebraska, Surgical Group

"Previously, I have used two different medical software packages and neither of those packages was as easy to understand and as easy to use as American Medical Software. As I became comfortable with the program and my knowledge level increased I easily saw the many opportunities American Medical Software gave me in my day to day and monthly processes necessary to operate an efficient medical office. I highly recommend American Medical Software."
D. Groce, Office Manager, Texas, Internal Medicine

"I deal mostly with A/R and I like your software for posting directly to each charge and the numerous choices for tracking information."
B. Johnston, Office Manager, Oklahoma, Colon/Rectal Surgery

"I appreciate all of you, not to mention the software. I am a small business with growing pains and you all help ease some of the pains. "Good Pains" Thank you for being both caring and knowledgeable."
J. Wellman, Owner, Illinois, Medical Billing Co.

"The AMS software is easy to use for our Mental Health requirements."
N. McStockard, Office Manager, Iowa, Mental Health

"I like the ease of operation - being able to access multiple tasks from any window."
Dr. T. Bingham, Tennessee, General Surgery

"I find this product to be very affordable and user friendly. The reports that it generates definitely helps our practice get the best idea as to what is expected and what needs to be addressed. The AMS staff have been very helpful with all our questions and setup of the software. They always seem to be finding improvements based on our opinions. I feel that AMS is always out to meet the needs of the medical practice."
T. Russell, Administrator, Florida, Walk-in Clinic

S. Cutler, Office Manager, Texas, Rheumatology

Dr. W. Woods, North Carolina, Dermatology

J. Littigan, Office Manager, Illinois, Internal Medicine

"The service is good, and less expensive than other packages of same caliber."
Dr. J. Karinattu, Illinois, Family Practice

"We like being able to scroll through multiple doctors' schedules instead of having to get completely out of one to go to another. Statement tracking is also nice."
A. Sweet, Office Manager, Iowa, Family Practice

"It is amazing what surprises can come in an update. The business office called me this morning after I applied the latest update last night, and was raving about the improvements to the ledger card. It is much easier for them to use and has made the business office happier."
M. Holm, IT Manager, Guam, Clinic and Wellness Center

"The AMS system runs good and the service is good."
Dr. A Dwarakanathan, Illinois, Endocrinology

"AMS is simple to use, even without a lot of computer knowledge. I like the enhancements to Appointment Scheduling and the ability to go from account payments to inquiry to the ledger card without re-entering the patient's name."
C. Fox, Office Manager, North Carolina, Internal Medicine

"The AMS software has always been easy to use."
M. Drake, Office Manager, Florida, Podiatry

"In making the decision to go with American Medical Software rather than a number of other software packages which have been highly promoted, a major decision of mine was to stick to a program which would be cost effective yet highly functional for a small to medium size practice."
Dr. A. Franks, New York, Dermatology/Rheumatology

"The software works well. We thought the update this year was very good."
Dr. C. Palani, Illinois, General Surgery

"Your system is fairly priced, is a tremendous time saver and offers all that's important for our office management. I greatly appreciate your commitment to support."
Dr. D. Kelley, Washington, Internal Medicine

"We've been using AMS Practice Management Plus and have always been satisfied with it. The Medical Office Management System allows smooth billing and electronic filing of claims. There is great flexibility in tracking of many aspects of the financial details of our practice. We can follow up on the status of insurance claims to ensure that outstanding charges are tracked down and dealt with.

The Electronic Medical Records allows for rapid access to progress notes and patient date, both to ensure proper follow up, and to allow transmission of appropriate records to other providers involved in a patient's care. It is very easy to create templates that fit our practice (e.g. Diabetic Follow-up Note, Acute Respiratory Complaint Note, Phone Calls), which makes each patient encounter much more efficient. The EMR is flexible, and can be used in different ways to suite different practice styles. Printing out prescriptions is very rapid. With a file of common prescriptions, refilling a number of prescriptions for a patient can be accomplished with just a few keystrokes/mouse points, rather than tedious rewriting of paper prescriptions. The possibility of medication errors is greatly reduced.

The Appointment Processing Module makes it easy to schedule patients and search for past or future appointments, without the need to flip through pages and pages of appointments on paper. I often schedule patients for their follow up visits while I sit with them. I can easily block out time for vacation myself, so that patients are not accidentally scheduled while I am going to be away. It is easy to track patients who have missed appointments and their reasons for doing so.

I often use to the Handheld Pocket PC Module to see my schedule when out of the office (e.g. while talking to a patient while on call, to see when they might be able to come in). I am still growing into the module, but as I expand the memory on my Pocket PC, I plan to keep basic data about the patients (e.g. problems, meds) available as well. It is also possible to bill "on the fly" while in the hospital at the time the patient is seen, rather than having to remember to do it when returning to the office.

One final note---technical support is excellent. The AMS folk are easy to talk to and have been able to walk us through any problems (despite our comparative lack of technical savvy) without losing their patience."
Dr. A. Rimicci, Virginia, Internal Medicine
