Not once have they ever tried to improve on the PM software we purchased. The upgrades (few) come in a way you have to buy a whole new package. Now they say we have to purchase the EMR with the Phys system. This was a large investment made initially. GE is only interested in making money. There support is the worst. We had to hire a company that just does their support because they cant do their own. This is the worst software & support ever. They told us they cant make it do whatever we needed. Unfortunately, our administrator bought in to that one. Buyer beware. I have been on GE Centricity since 2005. Not once have they ever tried to improve on the PM software we purchased.

All of the people that he mentions in his interview we have met with and they have made big promises. Nothing ever comes of the promises. GE has no idea how to do large account management and their customers pay the price for their dysfunctional business units not working together.

Not impressed. Still feels like a money play. Haven’t seen that kind of random rambling in quite a while. Not impressed. Still feels like a money play.
