Curas Named One of the Fastest Growing Companies in St. Louis
Health Care IT firm ranks 16th with over 70% growth.
- St. Louis, MO-IL (1888PressRelease) July 01, 2011 - Curas, Inc., a health information technology firm, has been named one of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the St. Louis area by the St. Louis Business Journal. The companies were ranked based on revenue growth between 2008 and 2010. Curas was listed as No. 16, with 2010 revenue of $2.3 million - more than 70% revenue growth since 2008.
Curas has grown steadily since its founding in 2004, earning several honors and serving over 700 physicians in 30 states. In 2009 and 2010, the firm was named the #1 reseller for the eClinicalWorks suite of Electronic Health Records and Practice Management solutions. In 2011, Co-Founder Brad Cassity was named among St. Louis' Top Young Entrepreneurs by St. Louis Small Business Monthly.
Managing Partner, Num Pisutha-Arnond, attributes Curas' growth to the firm's ability to marry the right technology solution with the right implementation plan, taking all facets of a medical practice's business and workflow into account to create a real-life, workable solution. Whereas many EMR implementations only see a success rate of about 27%, Curas implementations boast a 99% success rate.
"2011 is an important year for EHR, as the federal government continues to encourage and incentivize the medical community to transition to electronic record keeping and sharing of patient information for enhanced care," said Pisutha-Arnond. "Curas has been on the leading edge of that movement, creating successful implementations and taking practices to the next level of efficiency and patient care."
The list of the fastest-growing private companies was published in the May 20 issue of the St. Louis Business Journal. To qualify for the list, companies provided their financial information from 2008 through 2010, and were required to show a three-year sales history with revenue of more than $200,000 in fiscal year 2008. In addition, the companies are required to be independent and privately held, and headquartered in the St. Louis Metropolitan Area.
