What Cloud-Based Services Can Do For Your Medical Practice

In this white paper, athenahealth provides insight into what cloud computing is and what it means to have cloud-based services working for your practice or health system. Cloud computing is a trend that is likely to continue to grow and be an integral part of all businesses worldwide. Cloud services are scalable, flexible, and available on-demand when more processing power is needed or when your business grows.

Software is the core of any cloud-based health IT network. Having the right software available to your staff allows easy management of your practice’s workflows including patient scheduling, patient encounters, billing, and order management. Since the software being used only exists in the cloud, updates are completed regularly and instantly by the vendor and there is no waiting around to download updates or installing updates with a disc.
