About Us

What if your health care practice could dedicate itself to health and care without being overpowered by the demands of business? It can with athenahealth®.

athenahealth offers the industry’s leading revenue cycle management solution. It’s a unique combination of web-based practice management software, unrivaled payer knowledge, and comprehensive business services – from eligibility verification to claims submission to insurance collection. There’s nothing else like it.

The athenahealth solution was developed by former medical practice managers Todd Park and Jonathan Bush, who grappled with the same business problems you’re facing. Our understanding of the health care system’s complexities enables us to develop better business practices. As a result, your practice can gain greater control, greater profits, and a great deal more time for patients.

If your revenue cycle feels like a stationary bike, it’s time to call athenahealth. Our innovative combination of software and services enables you to:

Your practice will join a growing network of thousands of physicians who share – and contribute to – the largest real-time database of payer rules and regulations in the country. And you’ll have a partner who manages your business issues, allowing you to focus on patient care.

With athenahealth, billing errors are caught and corrected before they become problems. We have the largest real-time database of payer rules in the country, so we’re able to immediately spot claims with incorrect codes, incomplete information, and other inaccuracies. Claims are scrubbed and sent out clean. Denials go down, cash flow goes up.

In addition, we provide full transparency into your practice. You’ll never wonder where a claim is again. You can track and access information on any claim, from its starting point to its payment date. Reporting is simplified. Finger-pointing is eliminated, and control is enhanced. You’ll see why athenahealth has quickly become the country’s largest revenue cycle management company for office-based physician practices, with close to $2 billion dollars in physician revenue under management.

"Before athenahealth, we could be weeks down the road before we spotted issues facing us -- now, we can quickly identify problems and address them."
