Award recognizes symplr as digital health standout for unifying healthcare operations ecosystem


HOUSTON, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- symplr®, a leading provider of enterprise healthcare operations software, announced that the symplr Operations Platform has achieved the "Best Healthcare Big Data Platform" award in the 2025 MedTech Breakthrough Program. This annual program recognizes standout companies and technologies shaping the future of digital health and medical technology worldwide.


The symplr Operations Platform is the next-generation digital backbone of healthcare operations, seamlessly connecting symplr and non-symplr products through shared services and APIs in one standard and connected platform. The platform empowers health systems to operate more efficiently at a lower cost with reduced risk—as they manage their workforce, credential their caregivers, analyze vendors and spend, and improve quality, compliance, and safety.


This unified architecture breaks down data silos to give organizations a comprehensive, real-time view of their operations. In fact, nearly 80% of CIOs and digital health leaders in the 2024 Compass Survey cited an opportunity to consolidate and optimize their health system's existing operations solutions.


Built on a scalable infrastructure in partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS), the symplr Operations Platform drives true operational interoperability and leverages advanced AI to provide Authentic Intelligence designed to reduce complexity, enhance care delivery, and improve efficiency.


"Healthcare organizations are overwhelmed by hundreds of disconnected software applications for operations with no large player offering scale and a track record of success," said BJ Schaknowski, CEO of symplr. "This award recognizes the innovation behind symplr's platform—the industry's first standardized approach to healthcare operations, freeing healthcare professionals to focus more on patients rather than managing disparate technologies." With seamless end-to-end integrations, the platform solves persistent industry pain points from recruitment to scheduling and offboarding.


"Clinicians waste over an hour daily on administrative tasks that could be streamlined," said Steve Johansson, Managing Director at MedTech Breakthrough. "symplr is redefining hospital operations and helping providers refocus on what matters most—patient care—and we're proud to recognize them with our 'Best Healthcare Big Data Platform' award for 2025."
