Kareo Inc., a leading cloud-based medical office software and services provider for small medical practices, today announced the launch of a new partnership with ChartLogic, a leader in electronic health record solutions for surgical and other complex areas of medicine including orthopedic and otolaryngology practices. Together, the companies provide an integrated solution of software and services designed to help independent practices successfully manage the clinical and business aspects of their practice.

The urgent need for an integrated solution was highlighted in the recent 2014 Black Book Survey. According to the survey, 90% of practice managers believe that an innovative, seamless EHR/PM/RCM system will ensure long-term practice independence and greatly improve productivity and profitability.

“We are excited to announce our new partnership with ChartLogic and see this as another great example of Kareo’s commitment to innovative and market-leading solutions to our private practice customers,” said Rob Pickell, Chief Marketing Officer of Kareo. “By seamlessly integrating ChartLogic’s EHR and Kareo’s practice management and billing solutions, physicians in complex areas of medicine have access to a combination of features, functionality, service, and overall value not readily available elsewhere.”

With a decade of leadership in practice management workflow and medical billing, Kareo’s Practice Management software and team of billing professionals will help orthopedic and otolaryngology practices manage the patient flow and revenue streams of the business. Like Kareo, ChartLogic’s easy-to-use software is designed to help doctors practice medicine better, not slow them down, which is why doctors can document a unique patient note in 90 seconds or less.

“This is a very strategic partnership for our company, and more importantly, for our customers,” says Joy Efron, Vice President, Marketing and Business Development of ChartLogic. “Optimizing collections, reimbursements and cash flow is as important to a small, private physician practice as optimizing clinical operations and patient care. By seamlessly integrating Kareo’s billing solutions with our EHR, we are able to expertly address all of these concerns..”

ChartLogic is the latest specialty electronic health record addition to Kareo Marketplace. Marketplace brings private practices a specialized selection of cloud-based applications and value-added services that can help optimize operations, deliver improved financial performance, accelerate adoption of electronic health records, and drive outstanding patient engagement. All of the solutions offered in Marketplace integrate seamlessly with and build upon Kareo’s medical office software platform. Marketplace currently provides a curated selection of EHR partners that cover the unique requirements of more than 15 medical specialties.
