best understood from the company’s client advocates:

information to the right patient, in the right manner, and
saves staff time in the process.” - Bethany Suggs, Systems

caused me worries. With the patient portal - when I can’t be
there - I still can help her manage her health and that’s
important to both of us.” – Nancy Brown, Practice

electronic heath record and practice management solutions.
A Greenway EHR solution can be exclusively tailored to
the needs of each provider’s practice and their specialty,
allowing for user-focused simplicity to the front office,
