SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Practice Fusion, the nation's largest doctor-patient community, has hit several significant milestones this year. Expected to reach 200 employees in its San Francisco headquarters this month, the company supports 150,000 medical practitioners serving 50 million patients nationwide. One in four doctors selecting an EHR today chooses Practice Fusion, which is reflected by the 49 percent increase in its users since August 2011. This growth confirms the urgent need for free, accessible and secure EHR systems for the nation's physicians--particularly those in small practices.

"We're democratizing access to EHR technology for physicians. The faster we grow, the more doctors we can help--and the more lives they can save," said Ryan Howard, CEO of Practice Fusion. "This year is especially important for doctors seeking Meaningful Use, and we expect that our momentum is only going to build through the end of this year and into 2013."
Key Facts:

Meaningful Use, with a total of $35.5 million paid to date. Of these,
the top states to receive payments include California, Florida and New
York

comparison, Practice Fusion is completely free
-- Practice Fusion is now connected to more than 100 labs, a 440 percent
increase year-over-year, largely thanks to its recently-launched Lab API
