AOAExcel Makes Financial Investment in Barti EHR Software

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. It 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. The software ensures quicker reimbursements by submitting and tracking claims through Barti’s revenue cycle management offerings.

FIRST-TIME INVESTMENT

“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, OD, 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.”

Barti Software is currently available to all eye care providers. Visit www.barti.com to schedule a live demo and learn more. As an additional benefit, AOA members can receive a $1,500 Visa Gift Card after signing up with Barti and being live on the platform for three months.
