AristaMD: Transforming Specialty Care with Scalable, Patient-First Innovation

 

SAN DIEGO, CA – September 16, 2025We’re proud to share that AristaMD is featured in Enterprise World, Transforming Specialty Care with Scalable, Patient-First Innovation, highlighting the leadership in specialty care coordination and his role in addressing critical healthcare access challenges.

In the interview, Keith Pinter, CEO, shares how highlights how his strategic vision has evolved AristaMD from an eConsult platform into a comprehensive specialty care management solution through SpecialtyCare360. Under Pinter’s leadership, AristaMD has achieved remarkable outcomes that directly address healthcare’s most persistent challenges: reducing specialist referrals by over 70%, cutting specialty wait times from weeks to hours, and enabling 73% of cases to be managed in-house with specialist input.

“When people don’t get the right care at the right time, their health deteriorates, costs escalate, and both patients and providers feel overwhelmed,” said Pinter. “Our mission is to bend the healthcare cost curve backward by ensuring patients receive the right care at the right time, while keeping primary care providers at the center of the care journey.”

The article also features the company growth and expanding services to support at-risk primary care organizations across the U.S. while investing in enhanced care delivery models. With SpecialtyCare360, AristaMD is helping healthcare organizations deliver timely, connected, and cost-effective specialty care—keeping the primary care providers “as the quarterback of care” and making access to specialty care, simplified.
