Practice Fusion scores F on the API Report Card. Practice Fusion (Veradigm) runs a gated developer program: an ONC-certified SMART on FHIR R4 API with 28+ resources, plus proprietary Labs, Imaging, and Billing APIs. Onboarding requires partner registration and a Salesforce portal, with a published fee schedule beyond the mandated FHIR subset.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly.
Practice Fusion is a cloud-based, ambulatory Electronic Health Record (EHR) platform built for independent medical practices.
Vertical: Healthcare (ambulatory EHR + practice management + optional RCM). Clinicians use Practice Fusion in the browser to document encounters, manage the problem list, e-prescribe (including controlled substances via EPCS), order labs and imaging, review and sign results, and chart immunizations.
Practice Fusion is one of the most widely deployed ambulatory EHRs by number of practice sites, particularly in the solo / small-clinic segment where it has been the market-share leader.
Yes, Practice Fusion is the system of record for nearly everything a small ambulatory practice does.
Founded in 2005 by Ryan Howard and headquartered in San Francisco, Practice Fusion grew through the 2010s as the free, ad-supported cloud EHR for small practices, peaking at 112,000+ monthly active clinicians.
Production API access is not self-serve, developers must complete a partner registration form, agree to ToS, and be onboarded through a Salesforce community portal before any credentials are issued.

Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
Yes. Supergood maintains an unofficial Practice Fusion API and MCP server so AI agents and internal tools can read and write Practice Fusion data. See the Practice Fusion integration docs at supergood.ai/docs/practice-fusion-api.
