About Ampla Health

Ampla Health believes engaged patients who take an active role in their health care can lead to healthier lifestyles, which is why the company strives to facilitate easy and open communication with patients. As a network of Migrant and Community Health Centers serving farm-workers and other low-income populations in six California counties (Butte, Colusa, Glenn, Sutter, Tehama, and Yuba), Ampla provides comprehensive primary medical, dental, mental health, and specialty care to an ethnically diverse population that includes migrant and seasonal farmworkers through its 13 medical centers and 6 dental centers. Founded in 1964 as a medical care project for migrant farm workers under the State Farm Workers Health Service and Migrant Health Act Fund, Ampla Health strives to provide the communities it services with high-quality, comprehensive, and community-direct health care that is accessible to everyone.

Because Ampla Health receives funding via reimbursement through the Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), the company is required to follow strict Federal document maintenance requirements. Ampla Health must also keep detailed financial records in order to remain compliant with the organization’s federal funding. Finally, budgeting constraints required the organization to keep a watchful eye on costs and income.

With the enactment of new federal rules requiring transparency in contract management for federally funded healthcare providers, Ampla Health needed a solution that allowed their organization to securely host critical documents, including service agreements, insurance certificates, consultant agreements, sales contracts, and hospital partnership or referral agreements. With a small team but an ever-growing customer base, Ampla Health was looking for a simple, economical tool that would allow the company to consolidate critical documents into one system that allowed them to customize access, run reports and audits, and remain compliant with FQHC.

After looking at other contract management software providers that were too expensive, required extensive onboarding and training, or included unnecessary features, Ampla Health chose ContractWorks. Sighting its ease of use, transparent and budget-friendly pricing, scalability, and straightforward implementation, Ampla Health began seeing results almost immediately.
