Allscripts-Misys MyWay Dominating Small Practice Market - February 26, 2010
Orlando Florida -- Allscripts is Dominating. The bottom line is that Allscripts is first in line -- Allscripts MyWay is Dominating Small Practice Market”
What else did they say about Allscripts?
"Allscripts' solutions are clearly dominating the small practice setting"
"An Allscripts product is being considered by about one-third of practices evaluating new EMR & EPM systems."
"Allscripts was the vendor most frequently selected as most likely to use."
"Allscripts was the clear leader in this survey, and we expect the company to benefit from increased EMR sales to the small practice market."
“According to the survey, most respondents indicated that they were evaluating an Allscripts product most often, when considering which practice management system to purchase. Allscripts was also selected most frequently as the vendor they were likely to choose, showing up in more than 35% of responses, in several cases with customers evaluating multiple Allscripts products”
“Allscripts was also well represented in the EMR space and continues to be the leader in a fragmented market.”
“Most prospective customers in the survey were now looking at more than one Allscripts product, we believe implying strength across the product set.”
What were some of the conclusions about other companies?
"Athenahealth Suffering from Lack of Consideration: Somewhat disappointing, only 5% of respondents indicated that they were evaluating Athena's collector product; 3% of respondents indicated that they were likely to select Athena."
"NextGen Has Less Traction Down-Market: As expected, QSII's NextGen segment has less traction in the smaller practices, as the company is focused more up-market."
"Inpatient Focused Vendors Lagging: With their focus on hospitals, none of the inpatient systems vendors we cover fared particularly well in the small practice survey."
What is the background on the survey?
Leerink commissioned a MEDACorp survey of 103 small and mid-sized physician practices to get a glimpse into upcoming Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and Electronic Practice Management (EPM) spending trends
The survey was weighted toward small independent practices sizes (1-4 docs), but included some practices up to 20 physicians in size.
