Aiding equitable access to healthcare

Helping communities in-need access the high-quality healthcare they need is an issue of vital importance to us. We partner with nonprofit organizations MedShare and PATH to impact health equity internationally.

Through our athenaGives Free Clinic Partnership Program, we support more than 430 free and charitable clinics in the U.S. with the technology and support services they need to serve their communities. Each year, our free clinic partners provide over 1 million patient visits. If you are a free and charitable clinic that does not bill insurance, you may be eligible to receive our EHR services for free. 

Shaping the future of accessible healthcare

The clinicians and technologists who will guide accessible healthcare tomorrow need STEM education today. To help make that happen, we’re partnering with educational nonprofits, Girls Who Code and Geeks Rule. In addition, we offer networking, mentoring, and resume review opportunities to students in STEM.
