General FAQ

Medical software can be a long-term investment in your practice. You should be able to experience the software in detail before making the investment. With that in mind, we created a Free Tutorial on Implementing Technology in Medical Practice, as well as a Free ABELMed EHR - EMR / PM demo CD. If you prefer a personalized demonstration, we can provide a demonstration over the Internet or in your practice.

If you prefer an in-person demonstration in your office, rather than over the internet, we will be happy to meet your needs. ABEL has Software Specialists in various cities that can also provide demonstrations and training either in your office or over the Internet. We also provide software demos that you can download or call 1-800-267-ABEL (2235) to obtain one free on CD. While evaluating our software, if you need any assistance, we can arrange for a Software Specialist to assist you.

ABELMed Inc. is dedicated to helping you find the best complete solution. Our strength is in software and related services. We believe that most physicians have better outcomes when they purchase hardware from a company that specializes in hardware. We provide free hardware advice to help ensure a smooth implementation.

ABEL has worked successfully with dozens of hardware vendors across Canada on behalf of our clients - our Sales Department may be able to recommend vendors in your area.

If you prefer to choose a hardware supplier that we have not worked with, we recommend that you select a full-service supplier that specializes in selling hardware to small businesses in your area. Pay particular attention to service level agreements and guarantees. For example, find out how long the vendor will take to provide service, and what action they will take to keep you running while your equipment is being serviced.

You may also decide to buy hardware "direct" or from a "big box" store. Whichever option you choose, system requirements and setup conventions for ABELMed are available free on our website or by telephone at 800-267-ABEL (2235).
