Englewood, CO – PatientNow, a US-based practice management company at the forefront of electronic medical record software and payment solutions that empower doctors and specialists to manage their practice, patients, and marketing in one place, announced today the appointment of Bethany Little as Chief Executive Officer.
Little’s appointment coincides with the amicable departure of Charles Layne as CEO and director.
Little, a seasoned software executive with a track record of growing B2B businesses that spans over 20 years, will also join PatientNow’s Board of Directors. She most recently served as President of Community Brands, where she grew the business through strategic acquisitions, payments monetization, cross-sell initiatives and product upgrades. In her role as CEO of PatientNow, Bethany will guide the company as it pursues its next phase of growth through acquisition integration, product expansion and operations enhancement.
“I am thrilled to be joining the entrepreneurial and innovative team at PatientNow at a time where patient care is rapidly evolving through software and technology offerings,” said Bethany Little, CEO of PatientNow. “Comprehensive practice management solutions for the elective medical industry are essential for improving efficiency, and the client-centric culture of the PatientNow team is well-poised to continue delivering solutions that allow our customers to spend more time where they want to, with their patients.”
“We are confident that Bethany is the right leader to guide PatientNow into its next phase of growth,” said Dan Wechsler, CEO of Blue Star Innovation Partners. “She is an experienced builder of B2B SaaS companies with deep experience in GTM strategy development, sales, customer success, product and service offerings and has a proven ability to roll-up her sleeves and grow companies through organic and inorganic means.”
