Surgical Case Scheduling for Medical Office Managers with athenahealth
Run surgical case scheduling on autopilot inside athenahealth.
The Problem
Booking a Primary Care case means coordinating surgeon, facility, anesthesia, equipment, and PA — one missing piece delays the patient by weeks.
What We Build in athenahealth
AI orchestrates the booking across athenahealth and facility systems, verifies insurance, confirms PA, and secures equipment — time-to-surgery drops and OR utilization climbs. Purpose-built for teams running athenahealth — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
