The agreement enables Texas community hospitals to receive the benefits of E-Hospital Consulting’s (EHC) implementation, training and consulting services with Optio’s innovative, subscription-based healthcare solutions. The combined offering is expected to increase efficiencies throughout hospital operations, while accelerating return on investment and enhancing the transition from manual to automated document processes.

EHC’s alliance with Optio is a win-win for both parties, because it provides community hospitals with a viable and affordable means of eliminating time-consuming manual processes, while ensuring that they can begin to see the results of their technology investment as soon as possible, said Jack Walker, president and CEO of EHC.

EHC has managed hospital IT system conversions and implementations for approximately 100 healthcare facilities throughout the US, with significant experience in Texas.
