AdvancedMD is a full-featured, amazingly easy-to-use billing and practice management system.  It is the only management program that is a 100% web-native system; which means all of your data is saved on the internet, under extreme security.  The web-based system means you don't have to worry about data loss to do fire, flood, computer crash, or backups; and AdvancedMD has established a 100% uptime. Features AdvancedMD can be used anytime and anywhere in the world where high-speed internet access can be found. AdvancedMD helps offices comply with 31 of the 52 HIPAA Security Issues.  Client/Server based systems address only 10. AdvancedMD provides free upgrades and updates that are automatically installed while the office staff is asleep. Data backups are made as often as every 15 minutes, tested, and copied to a separate off-site location. With AdvancedMD, an office never has to worry about file corruption and the liability associated with losing data. Expensive servers and other hardware are unnecessary, as well as the in-house IT staff required to manage them. ‘Downtime’ is a thing of the past – with 99.99999% up-time over the last 18 months, AdvancedMD is reliable, stable, and proven. Unlike some of their competitors, AdvancedMD won’t hold any customer’s data hostage – an office can download their data to a local access database at anytime. AdvancedMD is a tax write-off as a service (not a depreciating asset), so it’s a part of the cost of business operations.  Contact a local accountant for details. AdvancedMD was written in Java and .Net so it was designed from the ‘ground up’ to be run over the internet – other competing applications that claim to be “Web-Based” are simply existing client/server applications running over a virtual private network or accessed via terminal services.  They are slower and often a secondary solution and focus for those companies.  AdvancedMD is faster and has a better design.
