The Only EHR Built for True FQHC Care
Built by a team with lived experience navigating the demands of FQHC's.
Medicaid Rules Are Evolving. Your EHR Should Evolve with Them.
Athelas has first-hand knowledge of just how complicated your jobs are. FQHC clinicians are under pressure to see more patients without sacrificing quality as updates roll out. Tackling sliding fee schedules, UDS reporting, Medicaid complexity, and high patient volume requires more than a generic EHR.
Athelas Can Help
We work side by side with FQHC teams every day, building tools for the realities you face, not theoretical workflows.
We’re partnering directly with FQHCs to provide:
Native support for sliding fee schedules
Clean encounter capture for PPS and APM billing
Built-in UDS reporting workflows
Integrated eligibility and coverage visibility
Clinical documentation that feeds directly into billing and RCM
