(PRESS RELEASE) ST. LOUIS, MO — AOAExcel, a member-benefit and for-profit subsidiary of the American Optometric Association, has made a financial investment in Barti Software, a San Francisco-based eye care Electronic Health Records (EHR) company. In addition, AOAExcel has endorsed Barti Software, which is the first time that AOAExcel has endorsed an eye care EHR.
Barti EHR packs a punch with several features including an AI-powered efficiency, where eye care providers can chart in real-time with Barti’s AI scribe and schedule appointments by phone with AI Office Copilot. Barti Software comes with a VoIP phone system where eye care professionals can manage calls through Barti, eliminating the need for separate systems and keeping all communications in one place. Barti Software saves practice staff time by allowing patients to book appointments online 24/7 and transforms a practice’s online presence with a professionally built website. Barti Software ensures quicker reimbursements by submitting and tracking claims through Barti’s revenue cycle management offerings.
“For the first time, AOAExcel is investing in our profession’s opportunity to thrive and succeed with the latest state of-the-art EHR,” said Sam Pierce, O.D., AOA Past President and Chairman of the Board for AOAExcel. “An office’s EHR is a vital part of the heartbeat of the practice and is a major component of how smooth the office runs on a daily basis. We’re excited to be financially invested in Barti for our profession and for our members who now have the opportunity to upgrade their practice to the cutting-edge of the profession with this powerful new technology.”
“An EHR should do more than just store data—it should be the command center for the whole business,” said Colton Calandrella, Co-Founder and CEO of Barti Software. “Barti’s AI gives superpowers to providers so they can focus on treating patients instead of tedious documentation. We’re thrilled about this partnership and proud to be the first EHR company AOAExcel has chosen to invest in, as Barti stands out as a partner uniquely equipped to address a pressing challenge for all eye care providers.”
