Built for the frontline.
Built to keep care moving.
Clinicians and admin teams are stuck with the same problems: disconnected data, repetitive tasks and broken workflows. Care suffers for it.
Amalga is built for the hospitals the big platforms forgot
Traditional Health Information Systems are built for the largest hospitals with the largest budgets. That leaves everyone else with an impossible choice: pay for platforms they can't afford, or stick with outdated software and pen and paper.
We solve this.
Amalga is modular, affordable, and standards-based. It adapts to the way care actually works in your country.
Whether you're a Chief Medical Officer responsible for patient safety and clinical outcomes, a clinician in the ED wanting to see more patients every shift, or an administrator tired of the paper war, we give you the data and tools you need, when you need them.
Our founder built hospital infrastructure at Orion Health, and we pair that pedigree with the agility of a startup.

Our back story
Amalga's story spans nearly two decades and three custodians, held together by one idea: connected data means connected care. The platform was born at Microsoft, which coined the name Amalga in 2007 for a health system that was ahead of its time. In 2012, Orion Health acquired it and developed it into an advanced hospital platform, shaped by real hospitals across Australasia and South East Asia. In 2025, following the sale of Orion Health, McCrae Tech retained the platform and returned it to its original name: Amalga. McCrae Tech is a 100% New Zealand-owned health technology company founded by Ian McCrae - who also founded Orion Health - so the platform stays in the hands of the people who know it best. Today, Amalga is a modular, cloud-native platform that connects clinical and operational data across the hospital. Open APIs and standards-based integrations mean it runs in any environment - cloud, on-premise, or hybrid - and adapts to the way each hospital actually works. The engineering discipline Microsoft built in is still there. So is the simple idea behind it: when data flows, care flows.
