      The group that my APRN therapist works with started using Athena within the past year. The very first experience I had was when the portal asked me to "check in" for my appointment. To me, checking in for your appointment is what you do when you arrive at the office. My appointment wasn't for another week so I figured it was just sent early in preparation. Nope; over the next week I received emails, voice messages, and texts telling me that I must check in in order to have my appointment. I've known my therapist for a long time. I knew she wouldn't just cancel on me, so I ignored those messages and went to see her as scheduled. Then the office staff told me that I needed to put my insurance information into my profile. Why? They've had all of my billing info on file for a very long time. Reluctantly, I went to the portal to enter that information and instead was forced to go through multiple pages asking for my medical history not relevant to seeing a therapist. It felt very invasive and very impersonal. Since then, each time I have an upcoming appointment I am sent the very same email--which is apparently supposed to be a reminder of your appointment and you confirming you are aware--I am forced to go through each of those pages again. H*** no! I'm not giving some unknown entity on the mainland (I'm in ******) my medical history! I am so annoyed with this situation that I seriously considered finding another therapist who has nothing to do with Athenahealth. But I like my therapist and it's not easy to find one who is a good fit. Fortunately, she is okay with me texting her if I need to instead.
