Case Study: American HealthTech achieves paper-like electronic charting with PDFTron PDFNet SDK

PDFNet SDK, Solving Challenges in the Healthcare Industry

American HealthTech (AHT) is a long‑standing provider of post‑acute care clinical and financial software for skilled nursing and assisted living facilities, serving over 4,300 customers. Facing the industry challenge of moving patient records from paper to fully electronic charts, AHT needed a way to display clinical forms on‑screen in the same “chart‑like” formats caregivers expect and required a reliable third‑party component after other solutions failed to meet their needs.

AHT selected PDFTron’s PDFNet SDK, which delivered high‑quality rendering, efficient performance, and seamless integration into their eChart module. The SDK enabled tabbed, print‑accurate views of patient forms, helping AHT launch eChart (June 2007) to strong customer approval and simplified implementation for their development team.
