"Viewics is transforming the way hospitals use data to grow revenues and reduce expenses," said Rebecca Lynn, General Partner at Canvas. "I've been tracking Viewics for four years, and am impressed with the prestigious customers they have attracted. Their approach uniquely integrates data from different silos within a healthcare organization – finance, labs, sales, marketing – without burdening a hospital's internal IT department.
