A History of Supporting Orthopedic Medicine

The Orthopedic Difference

Orthopedic medicine is different from other healthcare specializations. In an orthopedic clinic, you need solutions that are tailored to what you do every day so you don’t have to waste time and mouse clicks!

Phoenix Ortho built its Electronic Health Record (EHR) software solution specifically for orthopedic clinics. We collaborated with orthopedic physicians to design a comprehensive EHR software that removes superfluous data, forms, and actions so orthopedic surgeons can focus on what’s most important to them.

About Phoenix Ortho

As successful executives in the EHR industry for many years, our principals saw firsthand how most systems were created for primary care. Adapting these one-size-fits-all systems to specialty needs was like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole; it just didn't work. They soon realized that orthopedic practices required an EHR system that would let them reclaim their day.

Rising from the ashes of outdated and dysfunctional primary care EHR systems in 2006, Phoenix Ortho was born. Our mission? To deliver an EHR solution that eliminates clutter and saves time.

Our solution was made specifically for orthopedic practices. Because we understand the intricacies of orthopedic medicine, our EHR software is able to help orthopedic physicians help more patients while eliminating hours of paperwork.

What Makes Phoenix Ortho Different?

One of our most important core values, aside from “doing right by the customer,” is family. To us, family is important because we’re a family business. We consider our customers a part of our family — and we treat them accordingly. It isn’t just the golden rule of “do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” it’s “treat our customers with the care and consideration we would give our closest relatives.”

In other words: “We’ll be there for you. Just like a good family should be.”

How do we show this care and consideration? A few ways include:

Paul McCune

Principal/CEO

Paul got his start in healthcare in 1971 as a scrub nurse and surgical assistant at Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas. He later received a Bachelor of Science from the University of Texas-Arlington and an MBA in Healthcare Administration from the University of Dallas.

His advanced education and background, together with the emergence of HIT technology, led Paul on a long professional journey. He started working in sales for practice management billing software and electronic health records (EHR) in 1988; in 2006, he introduced Phoenix Ortho, the first orthopedic-specific EHR platform.

Phoenix Ortho is an innovative solution rooted in improving efficiency and effectiveness within the orthopedic field. It has made a difference for more than 1,000 providers in 44 states.

Monty McCune

Principal/Developer

From the very beginning, family has played an important role in Phoenix Ortho's success. Paul's son, Monty – a talented web designer and graphic artist in his own right – initially proposed the development of an orthopedic-specific EHR.

At the time, Monty and Paul were both working on the graphical user interface at NextGen, with Monty acting as a contract programmer and later assisting with deployment, implementation, and troubleshooting.

The father-son duo pooled their life savings to create a prototype with help from a contract programmer. It was Monty's youthful optimism and the developmental tools at the pair's disposal that set Phoenix Ortho on its current path of success. Monty's prolific and accomplished career as a programmer and overall leader has led him to more than 10 years of experience with Phoenix Ortho, where he holds the title of principal, but the pride of a developer.
