medisoft is slow when changing practices

I have 3 practices running in medisoft, but when I change from one practice to another it takes about 30 seconds or longer for the other practice to be usable.
Any idea what is causing this. The practices all change fine on the server Itself. this just happens on the work stations.
Thank you
Roger

Hmm, what is the network speed on the clients and how much RAM do they have? What O/S do you have on the server and client? What version and service pack of Medisoft do you have (go to Help->About)?

And at least 4GB RAM on the workstations? What is the network speed at the workstations? Wireless? I don't think this 100% explains it, but opening and closing tables in Advantage Database is one of the slowest operations. You might consider creating a separate user ID for each database and open multiple copies of Medisoft - one for each database. Then use Windows task switcher to go from one practice to the next.
Question about office hours

Is there a way to enter in office hours the amount of visits a patient is allowed for the year and have it count down?
Thank you
Roger

You can setup a visit count authorization on the case and Medisoft will count down every day a charge is entered. The message pops up in Transaction Entry though rather than Office Hours I believe. You could set this up to notify 1 visit early and then the biller could flag the patient record than an authorization renewal is required on the next visit.
