About athenahealth
In 1997, athenahealth was founded by two practice managers trying to optimize the financial, clinical and operational performance of their practice. The founders quickly realized that software alone wasn’t enough, and developed a service-based solution by combining:
- intuitive Web-based PMIS and EMR software
- an unprecedented database of payer, P4P and clinical rules – continually updated by athenahealth experts
- a state-of-the-art billing, collections, and service center
The outcome? The 17,000+ providers currently on our network are able to achieve faster payment for care delivered, increased collection rates and greater insight into their financial performance and clinical operations – all without software licensing fees. >> Visit athenahealth.com
Our Solution
Through the power of our network, information can be shared across all clients, therefore giving each physician practice the knowledge of 17,000 behind them. A library of intelligence, built on experience and expanding daily, is shared by all athenahealth clients, allowing them to learn from us and from each other.
In addition, athenahealth’s Web-native enterprise application, athenaNet®, was built specifically to support the services we offer and help physician practices efficiently manage the entire patient and billing cycle. Through this platform, many of the manual tasks a practice’s staff would perform become automated, and many more are taken on by athenahealth’s staff.
