Embion connects providers to their pharmaceutical, medical/office supply, and capital equipment suppliers in a provider centric, supplier-neutral environment that provides real business value and sustainable cost savings across the healthcare supply chain. Embion is one of the first companies to address the needs of non-hospital-based providers, including physician practices, freestanding surgery centers, long-term facilities and home health care agencies.
Bill Elliott, chairman and CEO, of Embion stated in a press release: We are excited to combine the Embion engine with other critical functions necessary to operate a physician’s office in a productive and cost effective manner. We see Encounter Care Solutions as the best partnership opportunity, given their strength with integration of e-enabled applications for physician practices.
