A note from President, Marcus Perez
A new era of healthcare has begun, and at Altera, we’re thrilled to be on the leading edge. For decades, healthcare has been undergoing significant change, from putting the focus on improving the value of care to ensuring patient information is accessible, actionable and digitally enhanced. Healthcare needs to be taken to a higher place-and we see the summit. Our mission is to design digital health solutions to get there, as well as guide those we partner with along the way.
One of our core beliefs is that healthcare IT should work for clinicians, not against them. Every day, we strive to be insanely great for our clients so that they are empowered to be the caregivers their patients expect and need. To achieve these goals, we are guided by a set of comprehensive core values that each Altera associate embodies to consistently meet and exceed any challenge posed. We’re focused on operational excellence-to be better today than we were yesterday. This ethos creates a solid foundation to illustrate meaningful success with our clients and to provide them what they deserve: a reliable IT partner whose solutions are designed with a people-first methodology. Everyday achievements create positive progress for our clients, their patients and their communities.
Whether providing care or receiving it, people deserve a higher-level experience that fits and improves their everyday lives. That’s why we’re bringing next-level healthcare within reach.
