Practice Perfect System Requirements for Cloud Hosting

Electronic health records (EHR) and practice management software (PMS) are two very commonly used and critical applications linked with clinical management activities. Often, service providers bundle both tools into a unified platform for overall clinical management. EHRs are digital patient records that offer medical professionals comprehensive information regarding a patient’s personal details, allergies, previous treatments, and more. PMS software streamlines the operational and administrative functions of a medical practice, enabling them to focus on providing quality care to their patients.

Practice Perfect is one such PMS application that also incorporates robust EHR features to serve as an efficient medical management platform. It is a comprehensive software designed to cater to medical practices specializing in physical rehabilitation and wellness. Its key features include:

• Appointment Scheduling
• Billing and Claims Management
• Documentation and Reporting
• Patient Communication
• Workflow Optimization
• Insurance Claim Management

These features guarantee that every administrative and management aspect related to a medical practice is thoroughly addressed and efficiently handled. Practice Perfect was designed to optimize these operations to streamline non-medical workflows and focus resources and manpower on improving patient treatment and overall experience.

Despite all its benefits, users who opted for the on-premises version of Practice Partner are missing out on the cloud setup’s benefits. These users may be reluctant to move to a different, cloud-based platform due to the familiarity with the interface and functionalities of the locally deployed version. We have a simple solution for this conundrum. Partner with Apps4Rent and watch our cloud experts set your locally deployed Practice Perfect account on a customized cloud environment. This approach preserves your existing account and setups while affording you all the benefits of cloud architecture.

What Are the Benefits of Hosting Practice Perfect on the Cloud?

There are several advantages to hosting any software, including Practice Perfect, on the cloud. These benefits are listed below.

• Cost Saving: Unlike on-premises deployment where hardware that meets minimum system requirements must be acquired and subjected to ongoing maintenance, cloud hosting involves significantly lower upfront and maintenance costs.
• Flexibility and Accessibility: With the locally installed Practice Perfect setup, users are restricted to accessing the platform only on the device where it is installed or within the local environment. On the other hand, the cloud-hosted setup enables it to be operated from any location and device with a functional internet connection, significantly improving accessibility.
• Compliance and Security: While on-premises software has the potential to offer greater security than its cloud counterparts, it can only be realized if dedicated personnel and resources are allocated for its oversight. A cloud-hosted Practice Perfect would be secured and managed by the cloud hosting provider, ensuring that technically skilled individuals handle the security and regulatory compliance maintenance.
• Scalability: Locally deployed software is difficult to scale as additional licenses and hardware must be procured to make it happen, while in the case of cloud-hosted applications, the medical practice can simply request the service provider to increase resources allocated to the cloud environment to handle larger workloads and more user logins.
• Multi-Access: Using cloud-hosted Practice Perfect ensures that the software is not installed on a particular local device and can be accessed from any device with the proper credentials. This enables the software to be accessed on the go, enhancing mobility and providing real-time access to records.These points make it clear that hosting Practice Perfect on the cloud is the way to go and that it outperforms the locally deployed set up in almost every aspect of comparison.
