athenahealth
www.athenahealth.com

A proud corporate sponsor of ACEP, athenahealth is connecting care nationwide with cloud-based services for revenue cycle, electronic medical records, patient engagement, care coordination, and population health. A recognized industry leader with a network of more than 64,000 providers, athenahealth received numerous Best in KLAS awards this year, including being named a leader in usability.

Unlike conventional health information technology systems, athenahealth combines cloud-based software, networked knowledge, and back-office services to keep health care organizations—including some of the nation’s most prestigious emergency departments—profitable and focused on providing the highest quality of care to patients.

“Despite billions of federal dollars to fund installation of electronic health records in hospitals and doctors’ offices, most still can’t talk to each other. When data isn’t allowed to seamlessly flow it keeps care fragmented, frustrates patients and providers, increases the risk of medical error, and holds revenue associated with value-based and coordinated care hostage. A health care Internet solves for all of these problems.” —Jonathan Bush, CEO of athenahealth
