Health Tech Veteran, Bo Bartholomew, Joins EvidenceCare to Accelerate Growth
NASHVILLE, Tenn. September 10, 2020 — EvidenceCare, a leading provider of advanced Clinical Decision Support (CDS) technology, announced today that Bo Bartholomew has joined the company as chief executive officer.
Bo Bartholomew is a seasoned c-suite executive, and co-founder and former president and CEO of PharmMD, now AdhereHealth. He served as chief revenue officer at Shearwater Health and is a board member at several health tech ventures. A serial entrepreneur, Bo’s track record of driving growth in health tech companies is timely given the recent integration of EvidenceCare’s platform into the interoperable “app marketplaces” of major electronic medical records (EMRs).
“I am impressed by the clinical expertise and ingenuity shown by the EvidenceCare team. Because of the pandemic, every hospital in the country is looking to marry their clinical pathways with the need for operational efficiency and financial return. EvidenceCare improves care within the physician’s care process,” said Bartholomew. “Improving care by reducing clinical variation and improving documentation is a powerful tool every health system needs right now.”
EvidenceCare’s clinical pathway engine is fully integrated into a physician’s EMR workflow, solving a fundamental issue with content-based CDS for healthcare providers. The platform utilizes existing patient data in the medical record to deliver safe, compliant care that leads to better patient outcomes, while also allowing physicians more time to care for their patients.
“From inception to where we are today, I’m proud of the foundation our team has built and we welcome Bo’s leadership and expertise to support taking EvidenceCare to the next level,” said Brian Fengler, MD, co-founder and chief medical officer at EvidenceCare. “In my new role as chief medical officer, I will be focusing on what I’m most passionate about, building clinically-reliable solutions that empower my fellow colleagues to deliver the best care to their patients.”
“Bo is a great fit and he is joining the team at the perfect time,” said Jim Jamieson, co-founder and chief revenue officer of EvidenceCare. “The market demand is greater than ever. We have seen the ROI EvidenceCare’s platform can deliver as we create a clinically driven revenue cycle approach. Our entire team is excited about the future growth potential under Bo’s leadership.”
