Now a referral comes in, and it is checked, booked and sitting in athena before I have even opened it. My team got their afternoons back, and the referring offices notice.”— Felicia, Office Manager, Neurology Associates of Texas
NASHVILLE, TN, UNITED STATES, October 29, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Steer Health, the AI patient access and growth platform, will show athenahealth practices how referrals go from fax or portal to booked appointment in under an hour, down from days, at athenahealth Thrive 2026.
At Neurology Associates of Texas (NATX), which runs on athenahealth, Steer’s FastTrackCare reads each referral as it arrives, verifies insurance, offers the patient appointments and writes the booking back to athenahealth. Eligibility is verified automatically 99% of the time, and NATX projects 2,729 staff hours saved each month, based on observed weekly performance.
A second athenahealth practice, OC Surgeons, a 21-surgeon orthopedic group in Southern California, reports a 1.19% no-show rate, compared with 15 to 20% before Steer.

Steer will introduce its Agent Builder game, a quick personality quiz that matches each player with the Steer AI agent that suits them best. Steer will also introduce a new agent-building process on SteerAI Studio, its no-code platform for building, governing and observing healthcare AI agents. Steer’s Indie agent connects to EHRs over HL7 and FHIR, including athenahealth, so new agents work inside the system practices already run.
