Pros: The biggest thing I like about Phreesia Patient Intake platform is that it has taken a lot of the paperwork out of our check in process. Patients can fill out their information before they come in, and we are not spending as much time trying to read handwriting or enter everything ourselves.
Cons: It works better for some patients than others. Most people have no problem getting through it, but we definitely have older patients who need help.
Verdict: I like Phreesia overall. It has made our check in process much less dependent on paper and has saved our staff time. I think the biggest benefit is when patients complete everything before they arrive because then the front desk is not stuck doing data entry while other patients are waiting.

Pros: I like that we can use it for things like insurance information and payments instead of having patients fill out one thing and then deal with another system. Once the setup was done, Phreesia patient engagement software became a pretty normal part of our check in process.
Cons: We have had a few situations where information did not transfer exactly the way we expected it to into our other systems, which meant someone had to check it manually.
Verdict: Phreesia integrates perfectly with our EHR software making patient check in and RCM a smooth process for our practice.

Pros: I was honestly a little skeptical about Phreesia when we first started using it because I thought it was just going to give our patients another thing to complain about. It actually ended up being pretty useful. The biggest win for us has been payments. Patients can take care of their balance without having to stand at the front desk and get out their card while everyone else is waiting.
Cons: The patient experience can be hit or miss. I have had people tell us that they had to go through questions they did not think were necessary, and we have also had patients forget what they already entered and feel like they are doing the same thing twice.
Verdict: I would keep Phreesia. It has saved us enough time and made collecting payments easier that I think it is worth having.

Pros: From the front desk side, Phreesia has made a pretty noticeable difference. We used to spend a lot of time checking forms, updating demographics, and collecting copays while patients were standing there. Now a lot of that is already done before they get to us.
Cons: Its working well for us.
Verdict: I have a good experience with Phreesia overall. It has taken a lot of the repetitive work away from our front desk and I would rather have patients update their information themselves than have us enter everything manually.
