Market leading medical practice software vendor Genie Solutions is investing $6.5 million to develop a cloud-based patient portal for its specialist users, initially featuring pre-treatment forms functionality followed by appointment bookings and billings, and eventually the ability for practices to monitor patient-reported outcomes and experiences.

Genie Solutions, which was acquired by private equity firm IFM Investors in 2017, is also actively on the lookout for opportunities for additional investment to build it into a bigger company, including investing in its core business and potentially in acquisitions.
