AdvancedMD Becomes an Independent Company Following Acquisition by Marlin Equity Partners
South Jordan, UT – Sept 2, 2015 – AdvancedMD, the pioneer in cloud technology for physician practices, today announced that it began operations as a standalone company following the completion of its sale to Marlin Equity Partners, a global investment firm with over $3 billion of capital under management. Now known simply as AdvancedMD, the company continues to deliver fully-integrated electronic health records, practice management and patient relationship management software solutions, as well as big data reporting and business intelligence tools, designed to automate and optimize workflow in all areas of physician practices. AdvancedMD also today reiterated its commitment to independent physicians and launched new branding to reflect this commitment and its own independence.
AdvancedMD is one of the most comprehensive technology ecosystems designed for private practices and serves an expansive national footprint of more than 17,500 practitioners and 500 medical billing companies. The new AdvancedMD tagline, ‘Freedom to Practice,’ is derived from their focus on alleviating compliance challenges, streamlining workflow and ensuring providers get paid using state of the art medical billing power tools.
