The Best EHR Blogs of 2026

Finding trustworthy information about EHR systems can be difficult amid a flood of promotional noise. To help healthcare professionals stay informed, we’ve reviewed a wide range of vendor and independent blogs.

Whether you’re running a behavioral health clinic, a family practice, or a multi-specialty group, the blogs highlighted here provide clear, useful insights, often written by those who’ve worked in or alongside clinical care settings.

This guide is organized into two categories:

1. Best writers: The voices behind the most consistently helpful and easily digestible content
2. Best vendor blogs: Vendors publishing high-quality advice for practices and administrators

Best writers

These individuals stand out for their clarity, authority, and practical focus. Whether they’re physicians, product leads, or marketers, their writing helps practices solve real challenges.

RXNT

Millie Hoffmann, Director of Product Management: 

Millie provides a product-informed perspective on revenue cycle strategies (in the RXNT platform and otherwise).

Her posts share actionable tips drawn from operational experience, like configuring biller workflows and template settings in RXNT to reduce denials, or instrumenting your EHR to surface A/R issues earlier. She writes with the user in mind, making complex RCM topics easy to apply in practice.

Megan Kujawa, Content Specialist: 

Megan shares clinical and technical insights with a strong understanding of RXNT’s core users. She breaks down how RXNT features map to clinical workflows, e.g. e-prescribing nuances, step-by-step guides for configuring clinical templates, and patient-engagement settings.

Her posts often explain trade-offs (e.g., convenience vs. documentation completeness) and illustrate how to measure ROI from specific feature changes and so on. Her writing bridges the gap between industry trends and practical implementation.

athenahealth

Christine Davis, Content Manager:

Christine is the voice behind athenahealth’s product updates and practice solutions. Her writing translates what each change actually means for the teams using the software.

What set Christine’s posts apart, though, were her specialty-specific posts; clinician experience led the story, using real examples to explore operational trade-offs, growth pressures, and technology decisions from a practice perspective.

Each blog post is crisp and people-first rather than leaning on abstract claims about AI or automation. Even the more product-centric posts explain how specific tools and their updates genuinely ease staff workload, making the benefits feel practical and believable.

Office Ally

Sarah Brainard, VP of Product:

Sarah gives readers a senior-level perspective on medical billing compliance, RAC audits, and documentation accuracy.

Her posts distill dense regulatory information into digestible, real-world guidance;  she might walk through new CMS billing rules or audit prep steps and explain how to use Office Ally’s products to stay compliant.

Kipu Health

Carina Edwards, CEO:

Carina contributes high-level insights to help put industry trends into context, contextualizing shifts like value-based care and digital transformation in behavioral health settings.

Her posts tie broad changes back to the everyday realities of addiction treatment and mental health practices, keeping the content strategic yet relatable.

Each piece gives readers a big-picture view of where behavioral health EHRs are headed and how to prepare.

Best EHR vendor blogs

If we singled out every individual writer from each standout vendor, we’d run out of content to publish ourselves (not to mention patience from our readers). That said, these company blogs tend to blend product updates with broader, actionable industry insights.

Below are the top EHR vendor blogs to bookmark:

AdvancedMD

AdvancedMD’s blog focuses heavily on industry trends and people-first content. While updates aren’t as frequent as other entries, healthcare professionals are treated to easily digestible breakdowns of regulatory changes, industry surveys, and product updates, with the occasional guest post covering everything from navigating AI’s emergence in healthcare to RCM and improving patient outcomes

It’s a no-nonsense blog that also includes monthly roundups of healthcare trends (both domestic and international), as well as staff Q & A’s. All in all, their content is particularly useful for operations leaders in independent and large group practices, and even medical billing teams looking for a go-to resource on coding changes.

Elation Health

Elation’s blog zeroes in on modernizing independent primary care. Many posts look at ways to lighten the administrative load through smarter use of technology; the team writes about integrating AI-powered tools into their EHR to ease documentation workload and fight physician burnout, or how to succeed with value-based care in a small clinic. 

Their content targets primary care physicians and practice owners, offering tips on implementing direct primary care models and optimizing EHR workflows for better patient outcomes.

Dr. Sara Pastoor, Elation's Head of Primary Care Advancement and a board-certified family physician, is a leading voice in innovation. Last year, she challenged traditional quality metrics with the Person-Centered Primary Care Measure (PCPCM), emphasizing the patient-physician relationship and health outcomes.

CureMD

If you’re looking for sheer volume and longevity, the CureMD “Practice Smarter” blog is hard to beat.

With archives going back over a decade, it has amassed hundreds of articles covering everything from health IT trends (e.g. predictions for AI, interoperability, and cybersecurity) to nitty-gritty practice management advice like cost-cutting tricks for private practices. It’s an extensive library that new and veteran administrators alike can learn from.

Tebra

Technically separate from their blog section (sorry), Tebra’s content hub, The Intake, exists to help small private practices (particularly primary care providers and independent specialists). 

It addresses the everyday challenges of running and growing an independent practice, like diversifying revenue streams, improving patient retention, and using digital tools (EHR, telehealth, even AI) to stay competitive on a shoestring budget. 

They also cover how small practices can compete with larger health systems by using underutilized elements of their tech stack (telehealth and marketing tools) in practical, accessible ways. Using insight from their own surveys of practice owners, Tebra gives readers valuable insights into industry benchmarks and trends rather than bombarding them with abstract theory.

Greenway Health

Greenway’s blog leans heavily into thought-leadership and future-oriented topics, often penned by internal experts (product managers, medical directors) and occasionally external thought leaders. Topics cover health IT innovations, best practices in practice management, regulatory readiness, and customer success stories. 

They also do Q&As or interview-style posts with their CMO or clients (like Dr. Blackman’s insights on automation), which add a bit of conversational clarity to complex subjects. Readers come away with both a high-level vision of healthcare IT’s future and practical nuggets for today’s challenges.

eClinicalWorks

As one of the largest EHR vendors for ambulatory care, eCW'S blog keeps readers abreast of health IT innovation in a practical context. They showcase emerging tech like AI, patient engagement tools, and best practices from their vast user community. 

What sets eCW’s blog apart is the blend of forward-looking tech pieces and real client success stories, appealing to tech enthusiasts and practice managers alike.

Veradigm

Veradigm is the new branding for the Allscripts ambulatory division (as of 2023). Allscripts has been a long-time EHR and practice management vendor, with products like TouchWorks (for large practices) and Professional EHR, as well as the acquired Practice Fusion.

Their recent blog posts and thought leadership articles are authored by a mix of Veradigm staff and guest experts (some of whom joined the organization after the fact), leaning into data analytics and payer-provider insights.

This can feel a bit corporate, but the upside is that the information is well-vetted and reliable; they don’t over-generalize. If they make a claim (e.g. EHRs improve XYZ), they tend to back it up with a study or client example.

ModMed, formerly known as Modernizing Medicine

ModMed publishes high-quality content for each of its specialty-specific EMA platforms (orthopedics, dermatology, pain management etc.).

While some of the guides and videos are posted across multiple specialties, the outcome-focused, area-specific content helps physicians understand the value of ModMed’s solutions.

This is done not through hard sells, but through success stories and well-researched, study-backed use cases (both internal and external). We particularly enjoyed their ‘ModMed HEROs’ pieces, which award practice leaders’ successes in improving internal processes and patient care through innovative technology. 

MEDITECH

MEDITECH’s blog regularly features contributions from C-level executives, informaticists, physicians, and partners across the healthcare landscape. They typically cover health equity, public health collaboration, AI in acute care, and interoperability case studies (particularly around TEFCA and FHIR-based exchange).

Their posts refreshingly spotlight real provider voices (e.g. CMIOs from hospitals using MEDITECH Expanse), giving readers firsthand, system-level insights. It blends big-picture policy with grounded, organization-wide transformation stories, which makes it a sound resource for EHR selection teams.

Final thoughts

The writers and vendors here stand out for delivering information that helps readers make better clinical, operational, and technological decisions. Bookmark the blogs above, follow the standout writers, and keep an eye on independent publications. They’ll help you stay grounded in what matters most: delivering better care with technology that actually works.

Criteria

The Best of Blogs awards were created to highlight blogs that genuinely help people understand and navigate EHRs and healthcare technology, rather than those focused primarily on hard sells or marketing collateral. Our approach was grounded in independent research and nominations, looking to surface content that provides real value to software buyers, practice leaders, and healthcare teams.

We looked closely at how well each blog demonstrated a working understanding of healthcare and EHRs, whether through direct experience, close industry exposure, or consistently well-informed analysis. Priority was given to content that showed a strong grasp of day-to-day challenges in clinical and operational settings, and that offered practical, relevant insight rather than high-level commentary.

Several factors influenced our final selections:

• Usefulness and relevance: We favoured content that clearly addressed real problems, answered common questions, or helped readers make better-informed decisions.

• Depth and consistency: Blogs that were published regularly and maintained a consistent level of quality stood out, particularly where topics were explored with care rather than broad, surface-level coverage.

• Clarity and accessibility: Writing that was easy to follow, well structured, and considerate of a non-technical audience scored more highly than content that relied on jargon or marketing language.

• Credibility of perspective: Whether written by practitioners, subject-matter experts, or experienced industry professionals, we looked for content that was accurate, balanced, and transparent in how claims were made. Posts with clear explanations, real-world examples, or verifiable information, while avoiding exaggerated or (overly) sales-driven language, were viewed more favourably.

• Presentation and readability: Layout, formatting, and overall presentation were also considered, especially where they helped make complex topics easier to digest.

Where multiple writers or blogs came from the same organization, we focused on the most consistent and valuable contributors rather than including everyone.

In some cases, this meant highlighting strong thought leadership; in others, it meant recognizing authors who clearly understood their audience and addressed real challenges in a practical, grounded way. Content that introduced products or features naturally, as part of a broader discussion, tended to stand out more than content that felt overly promotional.

Final selections were made by an independent panel with experience across healthcare, EHR software, and digital content.

The goal was not to reward brand size or visibility, but to highlight blogs that consistently provide useful, well-considered insight for those undertaking EHR projects, regardless of whether they’re in the selection stage or post-implementation.
