Hint Health Partners with athenahealth’s Marketplace Program to Support Direct Care Organizations and Membership-Based Practices

Collaboration will streamline patient information and health plan eligibility between Hint Health and athenahealth, benefitting direct care providers and their patients

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hint Health, the leading provider of membership management, billing, and direct contracting infrastructure for direct care and membership-based providers, today announced a partnership with athenahealth, Inc. through the company’s Marketplace program. As part of the athenahealth^® Marketplace, this newly integrated application is now available to athenahealth’s growing network of healthcare providers to standardize and automate data exchanges and billing between Hint Health’s HintOS™ member management platform and athenahealth’s electronic health records (EHR) solution. In partnering with athenahealth, the offering now enables streamlined enrollment, eligibility, billing, and payment workflows and eliminates the need for laborious double data entry across systems. The partnership will simultaneously reduce errors and create a single source of truth for membership and billing data across multiple teams.

“Teaming up with athenahealth for this partnership will allow healthcare organizations of any size to operationalize and scale membership models in a cost-effective way that simply wasn’t possible before,” said Zak Holdsworth, CEO and Co-Founder, Hint Health. “Providers can now replace an often-manual workflow with a tech-enabled infrastructure designed specifically for direct contracting to help deliver care to a greater patient population whether that be through direct-to-consumer offerings or large-scale direct-to-employer offerings including onsite/near-site clinics.”

athenahealth is a network-enabled, results-oriented software and services company that offers medical record, revenue cycle, patient engagement, and care coordination services for hospital and ambulatory clients nationwide. The company’s vision is to build a thriving ecosystem that delivers accessible, high-quality, and sustainable healthcare for all.
