We're on the ground at FPTA's 2026 Annual Conference & Assembly of Representatives @FPTASSOC in Orlando right now, and the conversation at our booth keeps circling back to the same thing, PT practices are drowning in admin work that has nothing to do with patient care. Joe Carroll, Co-owner of Cape Cod Rehabilitation, said it better than we could, "Their technology is very far ahead of anything else that I've seen." If you're at the conference, come find us at booth #30. We'll show you exactly what he means. Explore what's possible in PT: athelas.com/physical-therapy #FPTA2026 #PhysicalTherapy

Athelas Practice Manager is in the @latimes Los Angeles Times. What happens to a clinic's billing team when the software does the work itself? Hersh Solanki and Oxford PT's Matt Ernst on what changed. latimes.com/doctors-scientis…

At The Physio Shop, clinicians were spending hours on paperwork. With Athelas AIR, clinicians got 1–2 hours back each day. The team also saw higher patient collections within the first month. And a system switch with zero drop-off in claims. "Our staff is exceptionally happy. They get to spend more time with their family. More time with patients. Less administrative burden." — Jason Klein, PT, DPT, The Physio Shop More time for patients. Less time on paperwork. That's the AIR difference. Read the full story → athelas.com/case-studies/ath…

"It's as if independent practices are fighting insurance companies with a plastic toy while the insurers have a flamethrower." @HershSolanki , Chief Business Officer at Athelas, powered by @CommureOS, in a new @AuthorityMgzine interview on how AI is disrupting healthcare and what practices can do about it. His point: "Healthcare is one of the only industries where you can do the work and still not know exactly how much you'll be paid." AI now automates coding, claims, denials, and reimbursement. Practices capture more of the revenue they have already earned. Across the Athelas customer base: - Median 8% increase in reimbursement per encounter with AI-powered RCM. - 85% reduction in documentation time with Ambient AI. A visit that took 15 to 20 minutes to document now takes a minute or two to review. His five steps for any practice facing AI disruption are in the full interview: medium.com/authority-magazin…

Family First Medical Center was preparing for the future. Handing off 20 years of institutional knowledge without missing a beat. The takeaway: a scalable revenue cycle is about knowing someone's on it, so you don't have to ask "did this get done?" That's the partnership Athelas builds with practices planning for what's next.

“Athelas has made my life easier just by knowing that they're chasing down money that's due to us. I know somebody's working on our behalf, so I don't have to worry about, ‘Did this get done? Did that get re-billed?’ And it's taken a lot of stress off.” — Justin Baird, Controller at Family First Medical Center Family First Medical Center in Idaho Falls sees 150 patients a day. Their billing had to keep up. With Athelas, they were able to: - Collect 26% more from insurance payers - Keep denials under 2% - Reach a 97% first-pass rate - Save on payment processing fees Justin tells the full story here: youtu.be/Y5ttvssig-o?si=qB7J…

Healthcare IT News ran a story today on how Oxford Physical Therapy Centers recovered over $250,000 with Athelas across their 11 clinics. While the numbers are strong, what struck us the most is he quote from Matt Ernst, partner and physical therapist at Oxford: "Our clinicians are happier no doubt. I have had physical therapists with over 15 years of experience tell me that they now remember why they wanted to be a PT again." Read the full story: healthcareitnews.com/news/ho…

"My frustration level is gone." That's how Dr. Joseph Carroll, Owner of Cape Cod Rehab, describes life after switching to Athelas. Before, denied claims, delayed payments, and hours of manual follow-up made every week more stressful. Today, AI helps identify what needs attention, claims are paid in days instead of months, and clinicians spend less time on paperwork and more time with patients. When the work behind the scenes gets easier, everyone benefits, including the people receiving care. Watch the full interview: youtu.be/MB_87pQ3B3M?si=JFDX…

What if your clinic could run with less friction? Less time spent documenting → Fewer operational roadblocks → Less revenue left on the table. Athelas brings the pieces together: Ambient AI, Air EHR, and RCM, working as one intelligent platform to keep your clinic moving forward. Because the future of healthcare is all about making everything work better together. See the vision in action: athelas.com

Whenever the staff isn't happy and they don't like the systems that they work in, that energy transitions into the patient as well. For years, healthcare technology promised efficiency. Instead, many clinicians found themselves spending more time documenting, clicking, and managing systems than connecting with patients. That's why the best healthcare experiences are created when technology fades into the background and lets clinicians focus on what matters most: caring for people.
