## The Problem

Lab results pour into Modernizing Medicine EMA faster than Dermatology Practice Managers can triage — abnormal results sit unreviewed, and follow-up outreach to patients is inconsistent.

## What We Build in athenahealth

AI triages each result against the ordering context, queues abnormals for provider review, drafts patient communication, and books follow-up when indicated — no abnormal result sits more than 24 hours. Purpose-built for teams running athenahealth — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## athenahealth Integration Approach

1. **Audit your athenahealth configuration.** We map the specific athenahealth objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your dermatology practice.
2. **Build on the athenahealth API or agent.** Integration happens inside athenahealth — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in athenahealth with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
