digiChart Inc

digiChart Inc is a cloud-based ambulatory electronic health record and practice management platform that has been serving independent physician practices since 2000. The system targets small to mid-sized medical practices that require an integrated solution combining clinical documentation, scheduling, billing, and patient engagement tools within a single unified platform.

The platform distinguishes itself through its focus on ease of use and specialty-specific customization for ambulatory care providers. digiChart offers pre-configured templates and workflows designed for primary care specialties including family medicine, internal medicine, and pediatrics, as well as specialty practices in cardiology, dermatology, orthopedics, gastroenterology, and OB-GYN. The system's interface emphasizes intuitive navigation and minimal clicks to complete common clinical tasks, addressing a common pain point among practitioners who find traditional EHR systems cumbersome.

deployed exclusively as a cloud-based SaaS solution, digiChart eliminates the need for on-premise servers and IT infrastructure, making it accessible for smaller practices with limited technical resources. The platform includes native practice management capabilities covering patient scheduling, insurance verification, claims management, and revenue cycle workflows, reducing the need for separate PM systems. Electronic prescribing is integrated through Surescripts certification, enabling controlled substance prescribing with EPCS compliance.

digiChart maintains ONC 2015 Edition CEHRT certification, supporting meaningful use attestation and quality reporting requirements including MIPS and MACRA programs. The system connects to major laboratory networks including Quest Diagnostics and LabCorp for bidirectional result delivery, and integrates with clearinghouses like Change Healthcare and Availity for claims processing. Interoperability capabilities include participation in CommonWell Health Alliance and DirectTrust networks for health information exchange.

The platform includes a patient portal providing appointment scheduling, secure messaging, prescription refill requests, and access to medical records and test results. The billing module supports electronic claims submission, payment posting, and accounts receivable management, though practices may also integrate with external RCM vendors.

digiChart primarily serves practices with 1-25 providers, focusing on independent physician groups that need comprehensive yet affordable EHR and PM functionality without the complexity and cost associated with enterprise-level systems. The vendor's longevity in the market since 2000 indicates established stability, though it operates as a smaller player compared to dominant ambulatory EHR vendors like athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, or NextGen Healthcare.
