[HumanSer] EMR software

[Sherry Pablo]

Hi, Hope,

NextGen was not accessible with JAWS from the staff/provider side when
I came across it in clinic. This was 2 almost 3 years ago, so things
might have changed. I had a tech specialist come in to see if
scripting would be an option, and at the time it was not. I recall it
was due to the storage of EMR data on servers and not within a local
network that was the issue with the organization I was with. I ended
up using workarounds for charting, which was fine with health
education work I was doing. I hope by now NextGen has improved so it
is more functional or allows for scripting. Let me know if you have
any other questions!
