Why we built it
Practice software should answer to the physician who uses it. So a physician built this one.
Every screen started as something Dr. Alluri needed in the middle of a visit. His training shaped the software, and the software stayed inside the practice.
The platform
Twelve things a practice runs on, sharing one record
Every piece works on its own. Together they write to one chart, one ledger and one calendar, on your hardware. Each has its own page.

A visit, start to finish
The platform fits the visit, because the visit shaped it
The software reads and drafts. The clinician decides. Nothing is signed, sent or filed by a machine.
Before the visit
The patient checks in, the chart gets ready
A clinician-written check-in gathers the history and screens for alarm symptoms first.

Prepared for what comes next
Take back control of your data, your costs and your license
Today, records leave the building by default, and per-seat, per-patient and metered-AI fees grow with the practice. We built it the other way around.
Data containment
Your records sit on hardware you own, inside a network that dials outward only. Anything leaving is allowed by name, or it does not leave.

Why practices choose it
Built for direct care, from inside a direct care practice
Four reasons physicians call, in the order they bring them up.
Every screen came from a visit.
Dr. Alluri trained in family medicine, then built the record he wanted to chart in, the check-in he wanted patients to fill, and the assistant he wanted to review, one visit at a time.
Walk through a visit →Your data stays in your building.
The chart, the video, the messages, the model that drafts the note: all of it runs on machines the practice owns. Backups are encrypted before they leave, and the keys stay with you.
How containment works →No per-patient rent on your own work.
A fuller panel should not mean a bigger software bill. No subscription, no revenue share, no per-seat AI tier.
See the numbers →The proof is a working practice, not a slide deck.
Excelsior Medicine, a direct primary care practice in Reston, Virginia, runs on this stack every day.

Questions physicians ask
Straight answers
Answered the way we would answer them on the phone.
Is Excelsior Framework an EHR?
Yes, and more. A self-hosted record at the center, and around it the memberships, billing, scheduling, video, messaging, mail, website, portal and AI a practice needs. We do not sell a subscription. We build it on your hardware and run it with you.
Is AI included?
Yes, on every build, on your own GPU. No AI tier, no per-note bill. A person approves anything that matters.
Can I take my data if I leave?
Yes, all of it, in the format the system keeps it in, with its full history. No export fee.
Is it HIPAA compliant?
No software is a HIPAA certificate. We build the controls, keep the evidence and hand you the documentation: encryption, access control, audit trail, signed business associate agreements, and a network that only lets traffic out by name. The obligations stay yours, and you will know exactly what they are.
Does it run a real clinic?
Yes. Excelsior Medicine, a direct primary care practice in Reston, Virginia, runs on it every day.

What it does
Health record, the way our clinic runs it
Four things worth knowing. Each one runs in our clinic today, not on a roadmap.
History
Every change kept, by whom, when
The record is a git vault: every edit is a commit you can read and revert. That is the audit log, and it is also the backup format.
running in our clinicStory
The patient's timeline, patient-reported until reviewed
Events the patient adds from the portal land as clearly marked patient-reported entries until the clinician reviews them.
running in our clinicNote writer
Drafts wait for a signature
Proposals from check-in, the visit and documents flow into an unsigned note the clinician accepts line by line. The signature is always a person's.

Where it sits in a visit
Before
Opens on what changed
The chart opens with the check-in answers and readings since last time.
During
Video and the note side by side
The visit station stays lean: video, status, end visit. The note lives in the copilot.
After
Sign, then publish a summary
The signed note stays clinical; a plain-language summary goes to the portal only when the clinician sends it.

Questions physicians ask
The short answers
Answered the way we would on the phone.
Is it a certified EHR?
It is a self-hosted record built for a direct care practice and running in one today. It is not ONC-certified, and direct care does not require it. If you bill insurance, you will need a claims lane we have not built yet.
Can I bring records from my current EHR?
Yes, from a C-CDA export. We import what maps cleanly and show you what did not.
Who can see the chart?
The care team, through the practice's own sign-in. The MSO side sees opaque references only, never clinical content.
