What Altamont Software does

Altamont Software is a California-based healthcare technology company founded in 2016 by medical imaging software veterans Brian Cavanaugh and Chris Barnett, who previously co-founded PACSGEAR in 2002 and sold it to Lexmark International in 2013. The company develops next-generation medical image connectivity software designed to give EHR and PACS systems access to islands of non-DICOM imaging data across healthcare enterprises. Its primary customers are large hospital systems, academic medical centers, radiology practices, and imaging centers, including marquee logos such as the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Kaiser Permanente, HCA Healthcare, Stanford Medicine, Johns Hopkins Medicine, the University of Pennsylvania, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and RadNet.

The company's offering is anchored by the Altamont Connectivity Platform, a unified, web-based architecture that provides centralized deployment, configuration, authentication, licensing, and auditing for all connected applications. Modules built on this platform include Passport SR, which automates the capture and insertion of DICOM Structured Report measurement data from modalities and AI applications into radiologist reports; CaptureWare, a suite for document scanning, CD import, photo upload, electronic forms, and print-to-DICOM; CaptureWare Video for medical scope video capture; Outbox for enterprise DICOM CD/DVD media creation with analytics on burner utilization and referral patterns; eForms for paperless clinical documentation; and Image Inbox for managing outside exams with rules-based reconciliation. All applications are delivered as zero-footprint web interfaces and integrate with major EHR systems (Epic, Cerner), PACS, VNA, and third-party AI reporting tools (Rad AI, Radpair, Microsoft, Solventum) using DICOM, HL7, FHIR, and IHE-compliant standards.

Altamont sells exclusively through a subscription-based enterprise SaaS model, typically under multi-year contracts, with installation, troubleshooting, and application support bundled into the subscription at no additional fee. The go-to-market is enterprise-led with direct field sales, inside sales, and self-serve free trials. All software development and technical support are 100% USA-based, which the company positions as a procurement differentiator for US healthcare customers. The company is privately held by its two co-founders with no disclosed institutional funding or venture backing, and operates from a single headquarters in Pleasanton, California.
