Phreesia, a leader in patient intake, outreach and activation, is pleased to announce it has acquired Access eForms, an innovative electronic forms management and automation provider that helps hospitals across the country streamline workflows, improve compliance and deliver a better patient experience.

Access eForms has a vast catalogue of content as well as deep expertise in the delivery of thousands of different forms used in healthcare settings, which has enabled them to quickly implement and retain clients.

“Both Phreesia and Access eForms are focused on delivering value for healthcare organizations and helping them navigate staffing challenges, operate more efficiently, and make care more convenient and patient-centered,” said Phreesia’s Chief Operating Officer Evan Roberts. “The Access eForms product is an excellent complement to our existing functionality—especially in the acute-care space—and we’re looking forward to supporting their clients and partners.”

Access eForms was founded over 20 years ago, collects more than 1.6 billion e-signatures each year, and currently works with many of Phreesia’s existing clients. The company has seamless integrations with the leading EHRs, including its longstanding partnership with MEDITECH.

“I’m incredibly excited that Access eForms is now part of Phreesia,” said Access CEO Tim Elliott. “Like Access eForms, Phreesia is founder-led with a long history of working to make healthcare better for patients, providers and staff. I’m confident that with Phreesia’s size and scale, our solutions are going to have an even bigger impact.”

Healthcare Growth Partners served as the financial advisor to Access eForms for this transaction.
