Patient IO

Patient IO (legal entity Filament Labs, Inc.) was an Austin, Texas care coordination and patient engagement platform founded in 2013 by Jason Bornhorst, Colin Anawaty, and Brian Gambs out of the Techstars Austin accelerator. Its API-first mobile platform connected health systems with patients between visits to support the transition to value-based care. athenahealth acquired Patient IO in August 2016 and its architecture became the foundation of athenahealth's patient-facing athenawell application. The standalone product, developer program, and public API surface have since been retired; patientio.com now serves only a placeholder page and its mail is handled by athenahealth.

Patient IO is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Healthcare, Patient Engagement, Care Coordination, and Digital Health.
