    Today I’m talking through the recently released article from the Inter-Organizational Practice Committee on recommendations for care during the pandemic, authored by Karen Postal, Bob Bilder, and several other rock stars in the field. This is an important topic as many of us continue to wrestle with how to conduct assessments during these times. Here are a few topics that come up in the article:

    • Why is neuropsychological assessment important right now?
    • What are the risks of delaying assessment?
    • Models for performing tele-neuropsych assessment
    • How to decide which model to use
    • Informed consent during this process

    Hey everyone! Given all the questions about EHR’s (electronic health records) in the Facebook Community and among my coaching clients, I wanted to take a few episodes to dive in to some of the major players in the EHR space. Each of these reviews will focus primarily on the testing-specific aspects of each EHR, though I’ll also do an overview of non-testing features that are important. 

    For the FULL review experience, check out the accompanying video on the Testing Psychologist YouTube channel. Enjoy!

    IntakeQ is the star EHR for today. Here’s how the review broke down:

    Pros:

    • Free trial, no CC required
    • Feature-rich for a competitive price
    • Nailed the paperwork aspect of practice
    • Customizable testing notes with a lot of control over the format
    • Option to charge CC automatically on the day of appointments
    • Aesthetics are on point
    • Billing & codes are relatively easy to manipulate once you get it set up
    • Excellent reporting options
    • Integrations and API support

    Cons:

    • Few gender identity/demographic choices
    • Some features were unclear: writing notes, submitting claims, assigning diagnoses
    • Lots of submenus within main menus. No walkthrough at the beginning to get everything set up.

    Verdict: Definitely a possibility as a testing psychologist EHR. Takes some time to set up, but could be very smooth from that point forward.
