COMPANY PROFILE: 
This compassionate non-profit organization is dedicated to delivering convenient, high-quality care to patients in a variety of settings.  They currently boast a team of 11 physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants who, along with dedicated nursing, clinical, and administrative team members, ensure that patients receive the best medical care possible while working diligently to remove access barriers.  Their services include home-based primary care, palliative care, hospice care, chronic illness management, home health, counseling services, and more.

The practice uses AthenaCare EHR.
