New Space Connects Licensed Practitioners for Secure Collaboration, Case Discussions, and Professional Development
PLEASANTON, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#CharmHealth—CharmHealth, a leader in healthcare technology solutions for providers, today announced the launch of CharmHealthSquare. This exciting initiative delivers a space for licensed physicians to enable collaboration, education, networking, and research to dramatically advance patient care.
CharmHealthSquare will make its debut in a live demo on Friday, Sept. 19, at CharmHealth’s annual user conference, Charmalot. Representatives from CharmHealth and Salesforce-owned Slack will take the stage at 1:45 p.m. at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Berkeley, California, before an audience of hundreds of attendees.
Responding to the Needs of Practitioners to Improve Outcomes
CharmHealthSquare addresses several emerging trends in healthcare delivery, including the growing need for stronger professional networks and collaborative knowledge-sharing and referrals among physicians. Recent CharmHealth users revealed strong interest in peer-to-peer learning opportunities as well as the importance of rapid access to specialist expertise to better support patient care. By fostering a connected community, CharmHealthSquare helps clinicians tap into shared resources, exchange insights, and work together to deliver more effective, patient-centered healthcare.
“We are thrilled to bring CharmHealthSquare to life to ensure that support and resources are no longer limited to large hospital systems. Now all licensed practitioners can have access to thousands of colleagues,” said Pramila Srinivasan, Ph.D., CEO of CharmHealth. “CharmHealthSquare is more than a community — it’s the engine of next-generation healthcare. By connecting collaboration directly into the EHR network, we’re creating a real-time platform where physicians can exchange knowledge, discover innovations, and unlock new opportunities. Our aspiration is that the same network will power seamless connections to patients, clinical trials, and advanced therapies — transforming the EHR from a record-keeping tool into a living ecosystem for discovery and care.”
Addressing a Critical Gap in Physician Communication
CharmHealth developed CharmHealthSquare after identifying the lack of opportunities physicians have to collaborate with peers experiencing similar issues or patient cases — a major pain point for CharmHealth users. This gap in communication was confirmed through feedback from CharmHealth users, who reported that they often conduct professional discussions in non-secure platforms, like Facebook groups, because other options haven’t been available for them. To address the issue, CharmHealth created the ultimate online physicians’ community.
At launch, CharmHealthSquare will offer multiple channels and resources through the Slack platform, including:
- Specialty-Based Discussion Channels: Organized forums for different medical specialties and topics.
- Professional Development: Access to CME-eligible courses, webinars, and expert-led tutorials.
- Clinical Trial Opportunities: Information about ongoing research studies and enrollment opportunities.
- Industry News and Updates: Curated, trusted content on new treatments, drug developments, and healthcare innovations and trends.
- EHR Integration: Planned deep integration with CharmHealth EHR for seamless workflow between patient care and peer consultation.
CharmHealthSquare will initially launch to a hand-picked group of approximately 5,000 licensed physicians who are existing CharmHealth EHR users and the most active prescribers. This approach ensures all community members are verified, licensed practitioners who have undergone rigorous background checks required for ePrescribing authorization.
The invitation-only model will expand after the initial rollout, with existing members able to invite other qualified healthcare professionals to join the community. Learn more at charmhealthsquare.com.
