ModMed signed a new multi-year deal making Amazon Web Services the cloud provider for its artificial-intelligence software for specialty medical practices. (businesswire.com) The Boca Raton company announced the agreement on April 13 and said Amazon Web Services will support its “AI-Powered Practice” products across clinical work, billing, front-desk operations, and patient engagement. (press.aboutamazon.com) ModMed said it has used Amazon Web Services as its primary cloud provider since it was founded, and described the new contract as an expanded arrangement rather than a first-time migration. (businesswire.com) Electronic health record software is the digital system doctors use to document visits, order tests, and manage billing. ModMed sells that software to specialty clinics in fields including dermatology, ear, nose and throat, gastroenterology, obstetrics and gynecology, ophthalmology, orthopedics, pain management, plastic surgery, podiatry, urology, and allergy. (modmed.com) The cloud deal puts that specialty software on a larger computing backbone as vendors race to add artificial-intelligence tools that can search records, automate routine tasks, and analyze practice data. Amazon Web Services said the ModMed platform is intended to bring those tools into “every corner” of a practice. (press.aboutamazon.com) In healthcare, that infrastructure choice is tied to compliance as much as speed. Amazon Web Services says its environment can be used by organizations handling protected health information under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, but customers still have to configure and manage their own controls under the shared-responsibility model. (aws.amazon.com) ModMed entered the agreement a little more than a year after Clearlake Capital said on March 3, 2025, that it had made a significant majority growth investment in the company, acquiring it from Warburg Pincus. Financial terms were not disclosed. (clearlake.com) The companies did not disclose the contract’s value or length beyond calling it multi-year. What they did spell out is the pitch: more scale, more reliability, and more security for specialty practices running ModMed’s software on Amazon’s cloud. (businesswire.com)
