Kareo’s Integrated Platform Chosen by Bright Futures Speech Therapy

Newly Relocated Speech Therapy Group in San Diego Aims to Improve Clinical Experience and Operational Processes

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kareo, a leading provider of cloud-based clinical and practice management software solutions for independent healthcare practices and billing companies, announced that Bright Futures Speech Therapy, a San Diego-based speech-language pathology clinic, has selected Kareo Clinical Electronic Health Records (EHR) and Kareo Billing practice management solutions to boost its practice efficiency and financial outcomes.

With two providers and a recent relocation to California from Florida, the practice wanted an integrated solution to make clinical documentation easier and more efficient. It also needed a robust billing system to better capture revenue. In the past, the practice has struggled with claims denials and recouping payments from insurance companies.

Kareo’s integrated platform is a modern, cloud-based, ONC-certified EHR that empowers practices to spend more time with patients, reducing documentation time, streamlining care coordination, and maximizing reimbursements. It supports a practice’s entire workflow and makes the patient experience simple and convenient. Using Kareo Clinical, practices can improve profitability, reduce operational costs, and increase patient and physician satisfaction, while having an overall positive impact on patient care. Kareo Billing integrates easily with Kareo Clinical EHR, simplifying the medical billing process to get providers paid faster.

“Kareo’s platform really stood out because of how easy it is to use and how it eliminates the need for me to spend time on clerical work, which is very cumbersome and hard to manage with a small staff,” Aja Carrillo, Practice Owner of Bright Futures Speech Therapy, said. “I needed an all-in-one solution that allows me to automate workflows and intake forms as well as makes it easier to get paid by insurance companies.”

“We’re proud to partner with Bright Futures Speech Therapy to help modernize its business processes and improve operations for stronger financial gain,” Andrea Kowalski, Senior Vice-President of Product for Kareo, said. “Leveraging Kareo’s integrated platform eases the complications and complexities of having to take on additional staff roles when headcount is lean and lets practices focus on what they do best: providing the best care to patients.”
