Yeah, but there's not exactly a strong trend of more independent non-hospital affiliated practices springing up creating a huge market [1, 2].
I also sorta doubt that the practices that have a large need for EHR/RCM (i.e. anyone who takes medicare/private insurance) don't already have a EHR/RCM solution already that has this functionality built in a la athenahealth/practice fusion.

- chrisgd 7y agoTrue, but there is a market. The names you mentioned are moving upstream and charging a higher price than many independent physicians are willing to spend. Those names also have a practice management tool but want you to bundle their EHR. An independent time management platform makes sense to me.
