Ingenious Med

Ingenious Med, established in 1999, emerged from the direct experience of its founder, Dr. Steven Liu, a practicing physician who identified a critical need to streamline the cumbersome processes of physician charge capture and practice management. Witnessing firsthand the inefficiencies and revenue loss associated with manual, paper-based systems, Dr. Liu, who at the time was the Chief of Medicine at the Atlanta Medical Center, developed a solution to automate and simplify these workflows. This physician-centric origin is a core element of the company's approach, focusing on creating tools that are intuitive for healthcare practitioners to use within their demanding schedules.

The company provides a cloud-based, mobile-accessible platform designed to optimize the revenue cycle and care coordination for healthcare organizations. Its primary clients include hospital systems, physician groups, and other healthcare providers. Ingenious Med's business model is centered on providing its software as a service (SaaS), generating revenue through subscriptions to its platform. This platform addresses the critical financial and administrative challenges faced by the healthcare industry, operating within the health-tech and revenue cycle management (RCM) markets.

The core offering is a comprehensive solution that combines charge capture, care coordination, and business intelligence functionalities. A key feature is its point-of-care mobile application, which allows physicians to accurately capture charges for services rendered in real-time, significantly reducing missed charges and improving billing accuracy. The platform also facilitates communication and coordination among care team members, ensuring smoother patient handoffs and collaborative treatment planning. By digitizing and automating these processes, Ingenious Med's solution aims to help healthcare organizations increase revenue, enhance operational efficiency, and reduce administrative burdens.
