Ortho2 has finalized an agreement with Phase 1 Equity to become the organization’s exclusive practice management software provider. According to an announcement, Ortho2 will provide its Edge Cloud platform and related services to Phase 1 Equity. Edge Cloud includes practice management, imaging and communication tools, as well as private cloud computing capabilities, management functions, patient reminders, educational animations, and mobile applications for patients and referring doctors.
Ortho2 has provided practice management solutions across a variety of settings, including universities, offices established by recent graduates, individual and group practices, dental service organizations (DSOs), and orthodontic service organizations (OSOs).
“We are thrilled to provide our Edge Cloud platform and services to this elite group of orthodontists,” said Craig Scholz, vice president of emerging technologies at Ortho2. “Phase 1 Equity has created a very unique approach to the standard OSO model, and their rapid growth and implementation continue to demonstrate their ability to execute their vision.”
According to Ortho2, growth within the orthodontic service organization segment has prompted the company to invest in enterprise-level technology and services in recent years. “Our new partnership with Phase 1 continues to solidify our position as the leader in enterprise-level orthodontic practice management,” said Scholz. “We’re excited to provide the backbone for Phase 1’s operations and help them with their continued growth in addition to expanding Ortho2’s customer base in the DSO and OSO markets.”
Mike Rice, CEO of Phase 1 Equity, said the agreement aligns with the organization's operational and growth objectives. “As Phase 1 Equity continues to redefine the OSO landscape, partnering with Ortho2 gives us a trusted, enterprise-grade platform that aligns with our growth ambitions and our doctors’ commitment to excellence,” said Rice. “Ortho2’s Edge Cloud provides the robust, flexible foundation that maintains the highest standards of clinical efficiency and patient experience. Together, we’ll deliver consistent, state-of-the-art practice management that enhances outcomes for patients and practices alike.”
