I have been an office manager at a medical center for twenty years and I have seen so many things come and go when it comes to the best practices in managing an office for medical professionals. I know that the way we used to do things when I first joined this clinic was the gold standard of the day and if we tried to do it that way now, we would all be just appalled at how old fashioned it all was. I know now that the best way to manage the information and the office functions is to depend on a web based EMR. This is cost effective and efficient as well.
