Calysta EMR, also known as Calysta Pro EMR, is a comprehensive, cloud-based practice management and Electronic Medical Records (EMR) solution built specifically for the aesthetic medicine industry, including med spas, dermatologists, and cosmetic providers. It was designed by aesthetic physician Dr. Hardik Soni to address the unique workflow challenges of these practices. The platform is an all-inclusive tool that streamlines operations from patient booking to billing and data management.
Key capabilities include a HIPAA-compliant, secure cloud server for patient data storage and automatic backups. The system is feature-rich, offering specialty-specific modules and pre-made aesthetic note templates for common procedures like laser treatments and neuromodulators. It allows for the creation of custom encounter forms and utilizes a 'macros' feature to save time on charting. Patient engagement is managed through a dedicated patient portal, automated appointment reminders (SMS/email), and a teleconferencing feature (Zoom integration) for virtual consultations. For administrative tasks, it includes online patient booking, two-way Google Calendar integration, inventory management, bills/payroll, and KPI reporting. The mobile-optimized app allows for easy management of patient photos, including on-screen photo templates and ghosting features for consistent before-and-after photo documentation, with automatic encryption and transfer to the patient chart. Payment processing is integrated via third-party providers like Authorized.net, and e-Prescription is available as an add-on module.
