The closely watched industry measure of product and service performance ranked HealthMatics first among EHR vendors providing applications for practices with between six and 25 physicians. TouchWorks placed first among vendors providing applications for practices with between 26 and 100 physicians. KLAS rankings are generated by in-depth interviews with thousands of actual end-users of the products reviewed.

HealthMatics and TouchWorks were the only products in their market categories for which 100 percent of customers responded they would buy the product again and would recommend it to a peer. Both of the Allscripts solutions earned their highest marks from customers for their ability to deliver full implementation within the agreed-upon budget. Additionally, both EHRs were rated hightest among all EHRs in their market catagories by that KLAS Vendor Relationship Evaluation. The evaluation, which is included in the mid-year report, covers everything from implementation, training, service and quality to whether the product and vendor lived up to expectations.
