Overview

The company is involved with the development of electronic health records in the British National Health Service.[3][4] Its Amadeus software has been praised for its integrative capacity, and the ability to analyse data in real time.[5]

History

The company founder and current CEO[6] is Ian McCrae.[7][8] The company's head office is in Grafton, Auckland, New Zealand.[9] Orion Health was a privately owned company for over 20 years. Orion Health became a public organisation on 26 November 2014 when it listed on the NZX.[10] It has not registered a profit since, and in April 2017 market analysts were suggesting that it was in serious trouble. The company said it was looking for a capital injection from new investors.[11] In February 2018, Orion Health launched a cloud-based Rhapsody integration on Amazon Web Services (AWS).[12][13] In March 2019, Orion Health de-listed from the Australian Stock Exchange and the New Zealand Stock Exchange, becoming again a privately-held company.

Locations

Orion Health has been headquartered in Auckland, New Zealand since its 1993 inception, with its current premises opened in 2010.[14] In 2015 Orion Health chose the Scottsdale Airpark area for its North American operations centre.[15]
