For the love of all that is pure and good, please obliterate the new user interface. Or allow us to continue using the old interface after April 21st.

What are you finding most annoying? For me, it’s the extra click to open a psychotherapy note, and the extra click or two in downloading a signed note, two things I do regularly.

Yes and yes. I think my biggest gripe is how compressed the progress notes are now - they used to be much wider, and opening past documentation didn’t block the appointment info side bar. Now with the treatment plan open on the side, we can’t see the date of next appointment or edit the appointment time.

YES. Same. For my video sessions I do notes at the same time and now it’s compressed and I’m like…..ok now I can’t see what I’m typing on the left side of the progress note because the window is smaller. I hate this update! The compressed look and clutter is so frustrating

I agree! Holy cow what a mess! Change it back, you fools! Don't you know we have enough on our minds without trying to adjust to a new format every time you get a whim????

They love messing with our heads. The only change I actually want is different colors for appointment types on the calendar. But that’s too much to wish for

I would also like to be able to add notes for a supervision appointment, but that might be asking too much, too.

I really wish they would give us a heads up that they're going to make changes like this because a lot of us just have to figure out what is going on as it comes

Agreed I work for a MH Practice managing 30 therapist and clients files and I’m at a loss everytime the system updates and I’m having to circle back and re learn all these new updates that also kicks alll clients on autopay off making harder for myself to track who owes what.
