Description
CareLogic Enterprise by Qualifacts Systems is an integrated suite of electronic health records (EHR), billing, and scheduling applications designed specifically for behavioral healthcare organizations with 20 or more users. The system is web-based and requires no software or hardware to purchase or maintain. It is used by behavioral health and human services organizations whose goals are to improve the quality of patient care, streamline administrative tasks, improve collections, and increase efficiency.
Qualifacts is an industry leader in behavioral health software. The original CareLogic system was developed in the 1980’s specifically for a national behavioral healthcare organization with over 1,000 employees. CareLogic was released as a web-based system in the late 1990’s and Qualifacts was spun off as a separate company in 2000. Since then, Qualifacts has grown quickly and now has over 100 organizations using its software. Continuous innovation and upgrades are guided by the company’s customer-directed product roadmap. Its active user community is supported by state and national user groups.
CareLogic is designed primarily for organizations with 20 or more employees. The program is used by a wide variety of organizations within the mental/behavioral health specialty including psychiatry, psychology, therapy, counseling, substance abuse, and others. It also supports outpatient, community, residential, and inpatient settings. Qualifacts reports that 30% of its customers provide care in inpatient and residential settings; 50% offer a mix of mental health, substance abuse, vocational and developmental disabilities services; 65% provide services in the community and in the office; 75% have 20 to 200 employees; and 15% have more than 300 employees. CareLogic has been 2011/2012 ONC-ATCB certified for organizations that want to qualify for federal stimulus payments.
CareLogic is available as a standalone EHR system for organizations who do not require billing or scheduling, or it can be used as a complete EHR and practice management suite. It requires low upfront costs and can be implemented very quickly relative to traditional enterprise systems. It is paid for on a monthly basis with automatically deployed upgrades. Most practices average an implementation timeframe of roughly 5.5 months. The browser-based system has a visually-appealing user interface and is very easy to learn.
We feel comfortable recommending CareLogic to most mental or behavioral healthcare organizations large enough to justify the system’s robust functionality. We have heard positive feedback from many CareLogic buyers and are confident in the Qualifacts’ ability to satisfy customers in the future.
