"We are excited to have once again received number one rankings in the AAFP's EHR User Satisfaction survey," said Praxis CEO Richard Low, M.D. "It is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our customer support team to have ranked first in Training and Support for the third consecutive survey."

The survey states, "The area of lowest satisfaction is EHR vendor support and training ... Clearly vendors have some work to do in this area." Praxis has nearly 90 percent satisfaction in that area among survey participants.

The AAFP EHR survey is conducted every two years. It is the largest, most objective survey of EHR User Satisfaction in the industry. This year, 2,719 physicians participated in the study, rating 30 leading EHRs in 17 areas. Praxis EMR has consistently ranked number one in the survey. In 2009, Praxis ranked first in Higher Quality Medicine, Disease Management, Health Maintenance, and Training and Support. In 2008, Praxis ranked number one in Overall User Satisfaction, Ease of Use and Flexibility, Support and Training, and Return on Investment.
