Chiropractic Report Writing Software

A growing number of chiropractors are realizing the advantages of implementing automated reporting software into their chiropractic offices. The truth is, no doctor enjoys writing lengthy chiropractic narrative reports or creating chiropractic SOAP notes.  Most doctors would agree that their time could be better spent caring for patients and marketing their practices. The countless hours spent writing reports could be better utilized caring for patients, scheduling seminars and screenings to market your practice, and enjoying a little rest and relaxation. There are numerous companies offering chiropractic software applications designed to automate the process of creating reports. With just a few clicks of a mouse or taps of a stylus, doctors can now create a variety of common office reports such as chiropractic SOAP notes, chiropractic narrative reports, chiropractic outcome assessments, impairment ratings and more.

The reports produced with this technology are complete and detailed, and look professional. Many companies will attempt to sell a doctor on the fact that their software produces random-text reports that do not look "canned." Keep in mind that if these reports don't provide the essential information and demonstrate benefit or improvement from care, it doesn't matter how they look. In addition to saving the doctor a significant amount of time, chiropractic report writing software can also help to save money by virtually eliminating the need for transcription services. Some of the chiropractic office systems listed in this section have been developed exclusively to generate a variety of reports, while others offer additional features and functionality. 

Chiropractic Software for Reporting

SOAPe Platinum Software
SOAPe Platinum software is essentially an upgrade of SOAPe PDA software, but with some significant and welcome improvements. Unlike prior versions of SOAPe, SOAPe Platinum no longer requires the use of a PDA and has been updated to function as a standalone PC application. As a result, users will no longer have to spend the additional $300 - $450 for a Pocket PC - a welcome improvement. SOAPe Platinum is not only faster and more powerful than prior versions of the application (due to the elimination of the PDA), it's much improved in terms of the features it offers. SOAP Platinum can create a variety of reports including SOAP Notes, Initial Exams, Progress Reports and Narrative Reports in just seconds. Our testers were able to create a full chiropractic Narrative Report in about 4 minutes. The software also allows the user to create an array of Custom Letters and Notes with ease. In addition to its chiropractic documentation capabilities, SOAPe Platinum also includes an integrated appointment scheduler (not very powerful), multi-user support (up to 7 users per office), paperless office capabilities and secure offsite data storage for a nominal fee. The total cost of the application runs $595.00 and includes 30 days free technical support and all software upgrades. A one year comprehensive support and maintenance plan is priced very reasonably at $195.00. To learn more about thischiropractic office software, please visit theirwebsite.

Chiro QuickCarts Software
Chiro QuickCharts by Midwest Software Inc. offers a complete documentation solution for chiropractic offices. The application does not include billing capabilities. Chiro QuickCharts features built-in scanning, patient check-in, reminders, a variety of reports, patient handouts and more. The software is also compatible with billing applications such as Eclipse, Medisoft, EZBis, and Chiro8000. The patient check-in kiosk and scanner integration allows for a paperless office. The patient check-in kiosk allows patients to enter their own subjective complaints and past medical history. The software application's screens are set up like a chiropractic office travel card, allowing the user o view not only the present visit, but the prior 4 visits as well. All data from the previous encounter is carried over into the new visit eliminating the need to re-enter data and ultimately, saving the user time. The software also features a case-report option which comes in handy for practices which see a high volume of personal injury cases. A single provider license retails for $2,495.00. A two provider license is $3,190.00. Installation and training will add another $299.00 to the cost. A 12 month maintenance package runs an additional $780.00. Overall, we feel Chiro QuickCharts is a solid documentation system, but overpriced for what the software has to offer. You are basically paying nearly $2,800.00 (w/ training) for a documentation application. There are many other complete chiropractic software applications on the market that include scheduling, documentation and billing modules that cost much less (see our many reviews). If you are seeking only a documentation solution, there are comparable solutions for under $1,000.00. For additional information, visitChiro QuickCharts on the web.

Report Master
Report Master Chiropractic Office Software is a Windows-compatible desktop application that is capable of producing a variety of chiropractic reports quickly and painlessly. Report Master has the capability to generate SOAP notes, initial examinations, follow-up visits, final examinations and more using a series of drop-down menus and check boxes. Our testers felt that both the interface and navigation structure of the system could and should be improved, as transitioning from screens can be very time-consuming. Most newer systems utilize tabs which are much quicker and easier when it comes to navigation and screen transitions (think Firefox browser). Report Master 6.0 also incorporates a simple-to-use 17" x 11" Travel Card for the purpose of convenience. The system is customizable and comes with its own built-in word processor for editing and saving reports. The last time we checked, technical support was being offered at no additional cost for licensed users. For complete and detailed information, visit Report MasterChiropractic Software.

EINSTEIN Practice Management Software
EINSTEIN Practice Management Software earns our highest rating and for good reason. EINSTEIN is a "young" company that is completely dedicated to the chiropractic profession. Einstein offers everything a doctor could ask for and more - affordability, a multitude of features that would impress Einstein himself, and a support plan that is unmatched by anyone in the industry. EINSTEIN Practice Management software was literally built from the ground up using the latest and most advanced .NET technologies. In fact, EINSTEIN is one of the only chiropractic software systems using this advanced technology. According to Bill Gates, 92% of the Fortune 100 companies are using .NET technology. EINSTEIN Practice Management offers everything from automated updates, upgrades and secure off-site data backup to automated appointment reminders to help reduce the percentage of "no-shows" common to most offices. The look and design of their interface is "clean" and "fresh", and maintains a very user-friendly feel to it that most doctors will appreciate (think Microsoft Office 2007).

We were provided an advanced demo version of the software and were very impressed with what we saw. EINSTEIN software completely automates nearly every chiropractic office procedure including scheduling, chiropractic billing procedures, report writing, outcomes assessments, impairment ratings and complete data management. An endless variety of notes, reports and custom letters can be generated in just seconds with ease. EINSTEIN can also digitize paper documents and transmit them electronically with ease. At the time of this review, we were told that the complete system is expected to sell for $2,495.00. They state that there will be no additional modules to purchase or extra charges for multi-user licenses or network versions. Unlimited phone support is also available - get this - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year! EINSTEIN's CEO and management team has made it clear that they plan to compete on every level in the marketplace when the product is launched nationwide in June 2007. For complete and detailed information, visit Einstein Chiropractic Software.

Eclipse Chiropractic Office Software
Eclipse chiropractic software offers a complete practice management solution for doctors. Their software has been in use for the past 20 years at thousands of offices throughout the U.S. Eclipse has recently upgraded their software to version 10.0 which features electronic billing capabilities, electronic medical record (EMR), daily notes, an alerts system, security features, and is HIPAA compliant. Eclipse also offers the capability to import forms that are frequently used in the office, and convert them to digital files. Patient data can then be imported into the digital files prior to printing. Eclipse has recently implemented a virtual training aid to help new users and their office staff get started quickly with their software package. The Galactek website states that these virtual training program must be ordered and does not quote a price for the training module. One would hope that it was offered at no additional charge as this should be included as part of their support plan. Overall, Eclipse chiropractic software is a solid program with an abundance of useful features that most doctors will appreciate. The last time we checked, their software was selling for around $2,000. Additional user licenses cost extra. Support with all upgrades will run you about $700 annually. For complete and detailed information, visit Eclipse Chiropractic Office Software.

SOAPe Software
SOAPe Chiropractic Software is a highly advanced yet easy to learn and use SOAP note and report generator designed exclusively for the Pocket PC handheld device. SOAPe allows doctors to create complete and detailed chiropractic SOAPe notes, initial exams, follow-up exams, and final exams at the point of care in just seconds. Notes are transferred to a desktop application during the syncing process where they can be viewed, edited, printed, faxed or emailed. SOAPe recently underwent a major upgrade in March 2007 and has now become a full electronic medical records (EMR) system. This impressive upgrade allows users to convert to a "paperless office" through the use of a scanner. Both paper documents and x-rays can quickly and easily be imported and stored to a patient's electronic file. At only $495.00, SOAPe is one the most affordable and feature-rich handheld chiropractic report generators on the market. In fact, this system has features found on chiropractic office software applications costing thousands more. Unlike other chiropractic reporting software, SOAPe requires that you actually type in the patient's history as opposed to detailing it using a system of check boxes and drop down menus common to most desktop applications. If you're watching your budget and don't mind using a PDA, we highly recommend giving SOAPe a try. The last time we checked, this chiropractic software was still retailing for a very reasonable $495.00. Best of all, they do not charge for and offer unlimited phone support which is always appreciated. They are still the only company we know of that does not charge and additional fee for support. For complete and detailed information, visit SOAPeChiropractic Software.

EZ Notes Chiropractic Software
EZnotes was designed by two "in the trenches" chiropractors who were looking to make their work – and their lives – easier by reducing their time spent doing paperwork. EZnotes is an easy-to-use, highly-intuitive system that uses simple self-prompting questions to automatically generate all of the necessary narratives and reports that chiropractors use. EZnoteswas created for the latest in portable technology, a tablet computer (not a tiny PDA) that has a screen which can be easily read. EZ Notes software creates a variety of chiropractic office reports including new patient history, daily visit notes, x-ray reports, narrative reports, exercise programs and nutritional handouts for patients. The software is completely customizable and will even sign your reports for you. EZ Notes also integrates with several popular billing systems. Again, if you are seeking a reporting and billing system, we recommend using a single system. On the downside, EZ Notes is designed to run on the Tablet PC which runs on average about $2,000 and can be quite bulky. Battery life is another concern. The system retails for about $2,000. Throw in the Tablet PC and you're looking at a $4,000 initial investment for a report generator. We feel this is a bit pricey, especially when compared to other systems costing the same and offering complete practice management solutions. For complete and detailed information, visit EZ NotesChiropractic Office Software.

RAPID EMR
According to their corporate website, RAPID EMR is a leading provider of tactical back-office technology solutions (whatever that means). RAPID EMR is a division of ACOM solutions which provides software solutions to the healthcare, financial and insurance industries as well as various government agencies. The RAPID EMR system produces a variety of chiropractic reports including initial exams, daily notes, SOAP notes, follow-up exams, and final exams using a intuitive and interactive point and click desktop interface. Our testers appreciated and enjoyed both the layout and tabbed navigation featured in this software system. Reports generated by the RAPID EMR system can be viewed and edited using Microsoft Word. On the downside, this system is very costly - running in excess of $4,000.00 which does not include a support plan. The support plan for the complete system runs about $1,500.00 per year. They also state that their chiropractic office software has been optimized for the Tablet PC which will run you an additional $2,000.00. If you have an unlimited budget and a thirst for portability, it might be worth checking out, otherwise it may be best to go with one of the other less expensive chiropractic reporting systems such as Einstein or Report Master. Also keep in mind that ACOM does not specialize in chiropractic office software, and as a result, may not be in tune with the needs of the profession as much as software companies who are strictly chiropractic in nature. like many other companies mentioned. For complete and detailed information, visit RAPID EMRChiropractic Software.

WritePad EMR Software
WritePad by Addison Health Systems is a full service randomized-text exam note and report generation system that has been designed to improve the efficiency of your chiropractic office and staff. Addison Health Systems serves a number of specialties including Neurologists, Orthopedists, Internists, Psychologists, Pain Management Specialists and Physical Therapists. We found our visit to their website confusing to say the least. That's probably because they are attempting to appeal too many professions at once rather than focus on chiropractors. They offer a countless number of modules which can be purchased as add-on's to their standard system for an additional cost. There is no offer of a free trial on their website or information about pricing. For complete and detailed information, visit WritePad EMRChiropractic Office Software.

DC Power Notes
DC Power Notes is a chiropractic office software company owned by Claken Software LLC. Key features of their chiropractic report writing software include a chiropractic electronic medical records (EMR) system, no additional fees for multiple computers connected to the same server, fully customizable templates, narrative reports, multiple levels of security and 100% HIPAA compliance. They offer a variety of sample reports on their website as well. Although not the most impressive notes in terms of formatting, they are complete and should satisfy the requirements of most insurers and legal and medical professionals. Claken also offers unlimited technical support for the first year at no additional charge. Each successive year of support will run about $400.00 which is about the industry norm. We were a little concerned however about the statement "support calls received within our normal business hours are nearly always answered or returned by the end of the business day" appearing on their website. One would hope to speak with support member that day if paying for a support plan, especially in the event of a crisis. The cost of the complete system runs about $1,700.00. The system also integrates with many of the popular billing systems as well. If you are looking for a reporting system with billing capabilities, it would be much wiser and less expensive to purchase one system. For complete and detailed information, visit DC Power NotesChiropractic Software.

MyEMR 2005
The folks at Software Motif actually offer a chiropractic SOAP note program free of charge, or as they put it "a free community service." Their chiropractic reporting software also includes their proprietary CatchPhrase narrative builder. On the downside, technical support is only offered through their internet forum. Software Motif offers this free chiropractic reporting software with the hopes of converting users to their more feature-rich (and expensive) practice management solutions including MyEMR for the Pocket PC and the MyEMR Datacenter which features billing capabilities. If you're planning to upgrade to the MyEMR Pocket PC chiropractic software, it will cost you $1,177.00. Upgrading to the MyEMR Datacenter will run you $2,277.00. Support plans are available for an additional charge. For complete and detailed information, visit MyEMR 2005Chiropractic Software.

ChiroChart by Mid West Software Solutions
Mid West Software solutions offers ChiroChart, a chiropractic software application designed to  generate a variety of reports including daily chiropractic SOAP notes, initial examinations, auto accident reports, worker's compensation reports and x-ray reports. Their EMR also uses a tabbed system which we really like as it saves time and presents a better overall picture for the doctor. ChiroChart also seems to be optimized for the Tablet PC, which can run the user an additional $2,000 or more. Mid West offers no additional information about the cost of their system or any additional fees for a support plan. For complete and detailed information, visit ChiroChartChiropractic Office Software.

ChiroPad Software
ChiroPad is a paperless office documentation system developed by Life Systems Software. ChiroPad offers random text generation to help ensure that every report has a dictated and unique feel to it. They state that their random text generator can greatly reduce the number of rejected claims which we dispute. Most claims are rejected not because of a lack of random text generation, but because of a lack of adequate documentation. No insurance adjuster will deny that. ChiroPad also features several context-sensitive graphical anatomy regions, voice capture abilities, embedded ink notes, and document scanning so your office can move toward a paperless existence. The ChiroPad software also integrates completely with ChiroOffice, a more robust and feature rich chiropractic software application that offers appointment scheduling, patient billing, fee scheduling, insurance processing, document scanning and patient letter generation. The interface of ChiroPad appears very "out-dated" and lacks visual appeal. This is more than likely a result of the older technology the system was built on. ChiroPad sells for $995.00 which includes one full year of support and all updates/upgrades. After that, it will run you about $500.00 per year for support and updates. For complete and detailed information, visit ChiroPad Office Software for Chiropractic. 

TGI Office Software
TGI offers three separate chiropractic software solutions depending on the needs of your office. These include VISIT notes, CASE notes and Autumn 8. VISIT Notes software is a sub-set of Case Notes and is primarily for the production of daily chiropractic SOAP notes. The cost of VISIT Notes is $495.00. CASE Notes is a full-featured documentation software application that can produce SOAP notes, chiropractic narrative reports, outcomes, accident reports and x-ray reports. CASE Notes comes packaged with VISIT Notes software and retails for $995.00. Autumn 8 software is an integrated solution for billing, scheduling, SOAP notes, chiropractic narrative reports, patient management and is HIPAA compliant. Autumn 8 software also features electronic billing capabilities. The cost of Autumn 8 for a single user same office is $1,995.00. Additional user licenses can be obtained for $300 per user. TGI offers a variety of training packages including in-office and at their Pensacola, FL location. Training will cost $300 - $600 depending on your preference.

Their chiropractic office software features appointment scheduling, integrated billing, full and flexible reporting capabilities, document scanning, inventory control and marketing tools. In addition to these features, Advantage software is also fully customizable so it should suit the needs of both doctor and office staff.

Users are also required to purchase an annual support plan which includes all training, technical support, updates and upgrades. The cost of the support plan is around $920.00 per year. For complete and detailed information, visit Advantage SoftwareOffice Software for Chiropractic.

Quixote Chiropractic Software
Quixote chiropractic software is distributed/marketed by San Diego based Private Practice Technologies. Quixote offers a full practice management solution for chiropractic offices. Their system features an advanced and attractive appointment scheduler, integrated billing system with electronic billing capabilities, automated reporting and an electronic document management system. Quixote is on the few "next-generation" practice management systems (similar to Einstein Practice Management) that is built using the latest .NET technology. This technology automates the process of updating and upgrading the software. Quixote also features automated off-site daily backups of critical information so data loss and recovery is never an issue. On the downside, these features do not come without a price - a steep one in our opinion. The last time we checked, the complete Quixote practice management system was retailing for $9,800.00. Their may be additional charges for support and maintenance, and additional hardware as well, making this one of the more expensive chiropractic software systems on the market today. For complete and detailed information, visit QuixoteChiropractic Software.

Platinum Systems Chiropractic Office Software
Platinum Systems is a full practice management solution designed especially for the chiropractic profession. Platinum Systems is a Canadian-based company  founded by Mr. Claude Côté. Platinum System presents a new organizational structure adapted to the chiropractic clinics. The complete system offers a total of 10 integrated modules including reception/administration management, document management, arrivals management, patient calling, x-ray and posture analysis, electronic travel card, communication, recall, clinic diagnosis and backup. Two additional modules are also available. These include vertebral thermography evaluation and pre-authorized payment. When we called the company's support line, we were placed on hold for more than 10 minutes and were constantly reminded that most calls are answered immediately. When we finally reached a representative and inquired about pricing, we were told that we had to call another number (which we did and received a voice mail). The representative we spoke with explained that the cost of the system was around "$700.00 per month" and was unsure as to how many months the term of the contract was. To implement the Platinum System, one needs to purchase not only their software, but an additional server, sign-in computer, adjustment room computers, and up to two front-desk computers! The cost of this system can add up very quickly. In our opinion, the system is a bit excessive for the needs of most doctors, and similar features and functionality can be found in other systems costing much less. For complete and detailed information, visit Platinum SystemsChiropractic Software.

EON Systems
EON Systems offers practice management solutions for chiropractors and physical therapists. Their chiropractic software consists of an appointment scheduler, billing module and report generator. When we contacted the company to inquire about their product, we were initially told the complete system retails for around $5,880.00 plus $120 per month for support and updates. When we seemed disinterested in purchasing their software and were about to end the call, the sales representative known as "Bambi" then told us about a special they have for doctors with less than 300 patients. The "special" price was around $4,600 not including support. When we questioned Bambi as to why she didn't explain the "special" price when we first contacted her, she stated that she forgot about it. In our opinion, this system is overpriced for the features it offers. EON claims on their website that they have invested more than $1,000,000 into the development of their chiropractic office software. It appears as if this cost is being passed on to the client. For complete and detailed information, visit EON Systems Office Software for Chiropractic.

Chiro8000 Office Software
Chiro8000 is a complete billing and practice management solution offered by Forte Systems. Forte Systems develops practice management software for a variety of professions including chiropractors, podiatrist, dentists, and even veterinarians.

Chiro8000 Plus is the company's best selling practice management solution and includes scheduling, billing, reporting and patient/practice marketing solutions.

For high-volume multi doctor clinics, Forte Systems offers their Chiro8000 Practice Expansion Software. The single PC edition for a single user retails for $4,999.95 and includes 6 months of support. The cost of the annual support plan after the initial 3 or 6 month period is about $950.00 per year. Network versions of the software are also available for an additional cost. For complete and detailed information, visit Chiro8000Software for Chiropractic.

ChiroPulse Office Software
ChiroPulse chiropractic software offers a complete practice management solution at an affordable price. Their chiropractic office software features an integrated appointment scheduler, insurance and patient billing with electronic claims capabilities, SOAP note generator, practice statistics and marketing information, voice-enabled dictation and multi-user capabilities. At the time of this review, ChiroPulse software was retailing for $1,600.00 for a single user license which comes with 30 days of free technical support. Additional user licenses are available at a cost of $900.00 per user. An annual support plan can also be purchased for a very reasonable $400.00 (single) plus $100 per additional user. We highly recommend clients purchase a software support plan, especially if it's reasonably priced and includes all updates and upgrades to the product. Trust us, you WILL have questions and problems that arise throughout the year. ChiroPulse also offers a "per incident" support plan where charges run from $35 - $100 per incident. Overall, we feel this system is affordably priced and offers the features required for most chiropractic offices.

Their aim is to "Align Your Practice" through their integrated practice management solutions specifically designed and developed for the chiropractic office.

We could not find any information pertaining to an integrated EHR. Pricing varies depending on the option you select. Their ChiroSoft Standard Edition runs $99.95 per month for a single user and $129.95 per month for a multi-user license. Network editions are also available for $129.95 single user and $149.95 multi-user. Keep in mind that these are monthly fees and are not applied towards the purchase of the software. If you would rather purchase the software, that option is also available at a cost of $3,999.95 and comes with three months of technical support. For complete and detailed information, visit ChiroSoft Chiropractic Software.

EZ BIS Chiropractic Office Software 
EZ BIS has been developing software that is specific to the chiropractic industry since 1980. They offer a unique "modular" approach to practice management software. Doctors may choose to start with the accounting and billing modules initially, then add others modules such as scheduling, automated SOAP notes and inventory control. This approach helps to reduce the initial cost of the software, yet allows for growth of the practice. EZ BIS software does not feature full electronic medical records (EMR) capabilities like other office software systems for the chiropractic industry. It also lacks a robust note and report generator for the creation of initial consultations, narrative reports, outcomes assessment, and so on. If you are seeking a full featured EMR, you're better going with systems like Einstein, Advanced or Quixote. The cost of the complete system runs about $2,500 and includes 90 days of free support. An annual support plan can then be purchased for $400 and includes all software updates. For complete and detailed information, visit EZ BISChiropractic Software.

Quick Notes Chiropractic Software 
Quick Notes Inc offers a variety of practice management solutions for chiropractors including PDQ, Q'Notes, Doc Q Manager and Q Coding. PDQ is a 100% mobile solution, allowing the doctor to complete patient notes at the point-of-care. PDQ software is built to interface with Q'Notes software. Q'Notes is an electronic medical records (EMR) software program that includes tools for transcription.  Q'Notes EMR has powerful organizational tools including patient groups and case number. There are also quick entries for no-shows, phone calls, and cancellations. Doc Q Manager is a desktop solution for initial examination reports, major narrative reports, fill-in-the-blank templating and management of your patient records and images. Doc-Q-Manager uses point-and-click screens with thorough pick-lists to help you complete your reports and initial visits. The solution is fully customizable. Q Coding utilizes a patented process of scanning barcodes to create a complete, fully accurate and grammatically pleasing note or report for your patient. Barcode systems offer 100% portability and 100% customization. Quick Notes barcode systems use the small and handy pocket wand, which can hold up to 100 daily notes. We have tested the Q Coding system in the past and found it to be more trouble than it's worth. It's probably best to stick with one of the other documentation solutions they offer. For complete and detailed information, visit QuickNotesChiropractic Office Software.

For Chiropractors Only 
Versatile Software Systems offers a practice management solution, known as For Chiropractors Only,  that includes scheduling, billing, inventory, mail merge, reporting capabilities and more. The system is network compatible and will run on Windows 95, 98 2nd Edition, XP and 2000. We are always a bit leery of any software that will run on the Windows 95 OS, as this is more of an indication of the program's age and functionality. The complete For Chiropractors Only system retails for $1,295 and includes one full year of support and maintenance. This is one of the least expensive systems we have reviewed. We attempted to contact the company on several occasions to inquire further about their software's features/functionality and about their technical support plan, but kept getting a voice message saying to leave a message. Hopefully this isn't an indication of the company's commitment to their clients. Again, when you are searching for a practice management system, you must not only consider the price and the features of the system, but also the level of support you can expect to receive for the company. For complete and detailed information, visit For Chiropractors OnlySoftware for Chiropractic.

Lytec Medical & ChiroChart EMR

Satori Chiropractic Software  
Satori's website states that they offer a "complete" practice management solution. Their system includes scheduling, billing with electronic claims capability and a mail merge feature to create narrative reports. The system appears to lack complete electronic medical records (EMR) capabilities, which allow the user to convert to a paperless office.
