Highlights & History

AOD is a developer of targeted application software serving the Long Term Care and Senior Health Care Industries. The AnswersElite software suite was specifically designed for Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs) and also serves Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs), Skilled Nursing Home Facilities (SNFs), Independent Living, Rehabilitation Centers and Home Health Agencies.

The Early Beginnings

Since 1973, the founders began the design and development of the first integrated Management Information System (MIS) specifically for the Long Term Care (LTC) industry. Their efforts were well received by the professional Long Term Care (LTC) community. Recognizing the growing market need for greater flexibility, power and support, AOD has developed a state of the art, uniform, integrated software system to serve the Long Term Care (LTC) industry through the next decade and beyond.

The Official Beginning

AOD Software was founded as "Answers On Demand" in 1995. The company continued to enhance the features and functionality of the AnswersElite system.

Growing Up

In 2001, the company acquired Advanced Information Management (AIM) and was renamed Advanced Answers On Demand. The acquisition made the AnswersElite product stronger as a result of the new abilities and contribution of all of the combined staff.

Running Strong

"Answers", as most of our clients called us, maintained its focus on the CCRC space when other software companies attempted to spread out into other markets. AOD became a subsidiary of a publicly traded company. As part of the growth and focus on the CCRC industry segment, a decision was made that transfered AOD ownership directly to members of the internal management team, pension funds and investors.

A New Era

In 2008 a new era began at AOD. Stemming from a solid financial position, the organization underwent a corporate rebranding in the fall and achieved deep enhancements to the product which was officially named AnswersElite including an enhanced user experience.

The Future

As the organization forges on to 2010 and beyond, the hard work and position that AOD Software has achieved in its history serves as the perfect foundation for growth even in challenging economic times. The AOD team is comprised of individuals from a variety of backgrounds including CPAs, RNs, MBAs, IT, CFOs and more - each with a strong work ethic and understanding of the industry that comes only from a customer-centric approach to business. Also, AOD is committed to staying current on the latest regulations and requirements of the industry, which is why a major software release of AnswersElite occurs every 6 months. AOD Software has grown consistently every year since its inception and retains its financially sound business practices. The AOD Software future is, in a word, solid.
