Watertown electronic health records company athenahealth Inc. has paid $7.7 million to buy “Point Lookout” – a 396-acre piece of property in Northport, Maine, where the company plans to house its new client and employee training center.
The new property is close to athenahealth’s Belfast operations center that employs 300 people.
A news release from the company indicated that facility, which will be available for public use at a cost, includes 106 cabins that, in total, can sleep 260 people. The company said it plans to use the Northport center as a site to host clients, healthcare providers and athenahealth employees for training and development purposes.
Athenahealth (Nasdaq: ATHN) provides web-based business services such as practice management and electronic health records for medical groups through its proprietary software.
In February, Microsoft Corp. and athenahealth formed an alliance to create an EHR platform, in which the cloud-based athenaClinicals and athenaCollector products will be used with Microsoft Amalga, the company’s “health intelligence platform” designed to gather data from different IT systems, to aid communication between doctors, hospitals and patients.
