Empower Healthcare and Compliance Partners

What Empower Healthcare and Compliance Partners does

Empower Healthcare and Compliance Partners (Empower HCP / eHCP) is a US-based healthcare compliance consulting firm organized around four practice areas: Compliance & Ethics, Privacy & Security (HIPAA/HITECH and breach response), Revenue (coding audits and revenue cycle compliance), and Mergers & Acquisitions (compliance due diligence for healthcare transactions). The firm is differentiated by a fully certified bench — all employees hold credentials in compliance or coding — and by an integrated delivery model that combines consulting, policy authoring, co-sourced compliance officer engagements, training with continuing education credits, a confidential hotline, and an educational marketplace called EmpowerMarketplace that doubles as a group purchasing organization (GPO) for members.

The business model is primarily professional services — quote-based consulting engagements with healthcare providers and systems — supplemented by subscription/membership revenue from the EmpowerMarketplace (training, webinars, workshops, vendor discounts) and, prospectively, by AI-powered compliance SaaS products jointly developed with parent CareCloud for H2 2026. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; services are tailored engagements sold directly or via referral partners such as Anatomy IT. Empower is based in Cresskill, New Jersey, was founded circa 2022–2023, and was acquired by CareCloud, Inc. (NASDAQ:CCLD) on May 22, 2026 in an asset purchase funded from CareCloud's operating cash flow, giving Empower embedded access to CareCloud's existing customer base of over 45,000 healthcare providers.
