I am thinking the day to day billing in a typical practice has to keep track of each transaction, bill it to individual Drs for % payment, generate item lists for billing Medicare in an acceptable format (remember nearly 80% of consultations in Oz are still B*B*), reconcile bank deposits, etc etc It also has to bring a fairly complex set of item numbers. It is quite a complex program with 3-4 levels of menus in Spectrum for example. Front desk staff enter most of the data. A spreadsheet wont cut it here

Yes.
But things start getting complex when you have 9 employees (and all their wages, taxes and super to manage), 4 companies, 2 trusts, a self managed super fund, a long list of assets at varied depreciation rates, real estate etc. - spreadsheet is no longer an option
