About
CarePaths Company Overview
CarePaths, Inc. is a privately owned company founded in 2000 that has no debt, is profitable, and has NO intention of selling any time soon. We provide service to over 4000 users around the world. CarePaths started out as a behavioral informatics and e-health company. Our founders were clinicians: psychologists and psychiatrists. Initially, we were primarily engaged in outcomes and disease management system design and deployment. In 2001, seeing the potential that the Internet held over client-server technology, we developed an Internet ASP electronic health record (EHR) and practice management system for behavioral health and social services. In this respect we are different than most Electronic Health Record companies that began their lives as billing systems and only later added clinical functionality. We continue to actively participate in research activities in a variety of behavioral health settings including primary care, specialty behavioral care, and pharmacotherapy drug management. We sponsor a number of national Practice Research Networks.
Our EHR, the eRecord, reflects our experience in the clinical arena. We understand that any behavioral EHR must pass the test of feasibility. That means it must be affordable, easy to use, and robust. We think the eRecord passes that test.
Our outcomes management products are modules of our EHR and are designed for assess the quality and effectiveness of behavioral health service delivery in any setting where it is provided. They continuously monitor treatment-related change, identify problem cases, and provide feedback to clinicians and organizations regarding patient progress in order increase the benefits of treatment.
A major advantage of the ASP platform is that enhancements become immediately available to all users of our system. With over 3000 users world wide, we have the privilege of receiving continuous feedback on our system. In a very real sense the eRecord evolves out of an ongoing dialogue with our users.
