Medfusion Named Inaugural Member of GE Healthcare Centricity Partner Program

Partnership Gives GE Centricity Users a Full Suite of Integration-Tested and Verified Solutions to Drive Patient Engagement and Simplify the Patient Experience

CARY, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Medfusion, a leading provider of patient experience solutions, today announced that GE Healthcare has named the company as the inaugural member of its Centricity™ Partner Program. GE Healthcare’s Centricity™ Partner Program recognizes Centricity software and services partners and enables them to collaboratively test software and services with GE Healthcare solutions. Medfusion offers a full suite of integration-tested and verified solutions that cover all aspects of patient engagement—from self-scheduling, to patient portals, to payment solutions.

“GE Healthcare shares our vision for improving the patient experience, and we are honored to be the first company verified in this new program”

“We rigorously test and verify applicants for approval to enter the Centricity Partner Program,” said Neeti Gupta, Director of Independent Software Vendor Marketing Programs at GE Healthcare Digital. “Medfusion not only met our strict criteria, but exceeded our expectations in their understanding of modern patient engagement, which starts with a simplified online user experience. We were particularly impressed with how Medfusion’s patient self-scheduling can drastically ease staff burdens by enabling patient-initiated scheduling for simple appointments.”

Medfusion encourages patient engagement by offering resources to simplify patient sign-ups and ensure high adoption rates. It also offers a PCI Level 1-compliant suite of patient pay options, including budget payment plans that seamlessly integrate with the GE Practice Management system and consolidate reporting for simple reconciliation of payments from all sources (online, point-of-sale, payment plans, etc.).

“GE Healthcare shares our vision for improving the patient experience, and we are honored to be the first company verified in this new program,” stated Kimberly Labow, CEO, Medfusion. “This selection is a testament to how our solution helps practices improve the patient experience while accelerating portal adoption and empowering patients in their healthcare decisions.”

GE Healthcare introduced the Centricity™ Partner Program at its annual Centricity LIVE user group meeting last May. Through the Centricity Partner Program, independent software vendors, systems integrators, value-added resellers, service providers and technology partners can actively test that their software and services work seamlessly with Centricity software. The program gives GE Healthcare customers more confidence that the software and services they’re considering will meet their clinical and business needs and work smoothly with their existing software.
