For this assignment, we will use the description of the ChiroTouch chiropractic EMR software at the websites http://www.softwareadvice.com/medical/chirotouch-profile/

and http://www.chirotouch.com/

Implementation Strategy – Will the system be implemented on the premises or as a Cloud-based service? Explain your recommendation for the chiropractic practice.

Implementation Considerations:

Vendor agreement

What does the chiropractic practice need to do to be able to start using the system?

How much will it cost to use the system?
