In 2021, leaders at Kareo and PatientPop realized their shared mission to support independent medical practices would be better served together. They agreed to merge and become Tebra - a name inspired by "vertebra," symbolizing their role as the technology backbone for practice success. The founders recognized that independent practices were struggling with fragmented systems that added complexity instead of reducing it, forcing healthcare providers to spend more time on administration and less time on patient care.
Today, Tebra's all-in-one EHR+ platform unifies billing, scheduling, clinical documentation, and patient experience tools into a single connected system. Trusted by more than 150,000 healthcare providers, the platform leverages AI-powered features like AI Note Assist to automate repetitive administrative work, streamline clinical charting, and help practices get paid faster. With over 1,000 employees across multiple locations, Tebra continues to evolve its practice automation platform to help independent practices thrive in an increasingly complex healthcare landscape.
