Healthie is an API-first, ONC Certified EHR, Scheduling, and Engagement Solution proudly used by over 34,000 clinicians who deliver care for 12 million patient lives. Organizations can leverage our out of the box UI, or use Healthie "headlessly" to leverage back-end and integrate into own patient and clinical experiences. This enables our organizations to create seamless, scalable healthcare solutions.

This post dives into how health tech organizations can think about leveraging our UI, API, SDKs, and additional developer resources and make important decisions as they evolve their care delivery models.

Healthie has a full UI, but is also API-First  

While the platform provides robust, out-of-the-box functionality—including a patient portal, provider back office, and essential EHR features like scheduling, billing, and telehealth—it also enables organizations to take a headless approach to development.  

With Healthie’s API-first infrastructure, you can build your own custom front-end for both patients and providers or integrate its features into existing systems. This flexibility allows organizations to iterate and innovate while maintaining the integrity of their tech stack.  

Key benefits of Healthie’s API-first EHR include:

• Last-mile customizable Front-End: Use Healthie’s APIs to design and build patient and provider interfaces that align with your specific clinical experiences and workflows.
• Scalable Infrastructure: Access the same API that powers Healthie’s UI for unlimited possibilities in integration and customization.
• Streamlined Resources: Focus your development effort on advancing your unique healthcare delivery model, while Healthie manages back-end complexities and undifferentiated features you need to deliver healthcare at scale.

Evolve your use of Healthie as you scale

Most of Healthie’s partner organizations start with our off-the-shelf web platform and mobile apps, but as they scale and continuously evolve their clinical models, or introduce new business lines, they increasingly leverage our API to enable "blendable interfaces" and/or use Healthie fully headlessly to extend the capabilities of the platform.

Here are three key considerations for product teams:

• Single Patient Experience: It's important to maintain a unified patient experience end-to-end, and leverage capabilities like OAuth and SSO to ensure that no matter how you leverage Healthie, patients have a seamless interface (versus disconnected apps or workflows).
• Coordinated Clinician and Administrative Experience: Clinical teams often juggle multiple workflows and systems to manage patient care, documentation, and scheduling. Healthie consolidates these essential components into one seamless back-end, reducing administrative burden and increasing satisfaction among both doctors and patients.  
• Direct connections into your Data Warehouse: Coordinate seamlessly across product and clinical teams with tools like Healthie’s data products Bridge and Visualize, supporting detailed analytics that drive operational and clinical decisions.

Healthie is modular: Use our interface, APIs, and SDKs to compose your pixel perfect experience.
