“We’re incredibly proud of our consistent year-over-year growth. What started as an idea to make health care information more accessible has grown to a solution that touches 25 million patients across the United States. This honor by Inc.magazine speaks highly of our solutions, customers, employees and our full-force commitment to transforming the way healthcare connects,” said Michael Morgan, chief executive officer, Updox. “With 886% growth, we are strong job creator for central Ohio and in the top 10% of fastest growing companies in the nation.”

Through an extensive Direct messaging network and platform of CRM applications, Updox connects all of the components within health care – physicians, patients, payers and partners – with the goal of driving improved outcomes through more efficient communications and better care coordination. Practices can communicate with patients to build engagement, as well as with other partners, such as hospitals, labs and payers, to coordinate care and expand referral networks. By growing the network and focusing on CRM, Updox takes that proven business model and makes it practical for health care. As the industry evolves to a more consumer-driven marketplace with a focus on pay for performance, Updox is changing the way healthcare connects.

Earlier this year, Updox was named one of Becker Hospital Review’s “150 Great Places to Work in Healthcare” and a 2014 “Best Place to Work” by Columbus Business First.
